Thanks again for having a look everyone.
Andy, that's a very kind offer, but I've seen what you can build. You will manage your SE5 no problem.
Ian, funny you mention Roden. When I was searching for a WW1 model, it seemed that the two biggest players were Roden and Eduard. I think I'll have to have a go at a Roden kit sometime in the distant future.
Tony, gently. I was so gentle with the
rigging, this little 1:48 plane has taken 3 days to rig !!
So, here's the evidence of my work so far. I'll have to check my
rigging diagram again, but I think it's all in place. I just need to touch up a few holes and the
rigging is done (oh well except for the undercarriage)
One thing is sort of on my mind. The
rigging is the wrong colour. It should be some sort of grey / silver not black. However, I think I'm going to leave it black because, I don't know how EZ line would behave over time if I painted it. Paint / pen on the EZ line might cause some sort of accelarated decay and my
rigging might start to pop in a year or two. Unless of course, you know different ??
