absolutely fantastic, looking at the rigging i thought it was really good for 1/48, for 1/72 is incredible.

absolutely first class, without specifying the scale I would have typed on 48 and larger 👍 👍 👍

Excellent work and finish and a nice inspiration - makes me want to build it too.
May I ask it before, what stuff do you need for rigging, and can you explain how you did it?!
TIA
Cheers, Christian

I answered this so many times, now I have the reply prepared just to copy n paste 🙂) here:

These are 0,12 mm fishing lines airbrushed with Agama alcohol gunmetal.
The strings are then glued into holes in lower wing with thick superglue, then threaded through the holes in upper wings, stretched and fixed in place with extra thin CA. I cut the excess string and dabs of glue with an oldschool shaving razorblade (it has a flat thin blade and it's sharper than a scalpel).I paint, decal etc. the upper wing afterwards.

Far sighted acting 😄 Thanks for your detailed answer. Sounds easy to do, guess I'll give it a try.

Cheers, Christian

Very nice model, I will have to dig up mine from my stash; I use the same method for the rigging, but I use EZ line of Berkshire Junction , bought on a railway modelling site or PRYM elastic knitting thread, from the local wool and buttons shop. These threads are elastic so they won't break when you touch them. I used to paint the Prym thread with a marker pen.
