Have fun. I learned a lot on my first biplane with rigging.

Best wishes for this one too! (Got to build me another Camel or at least a Pup, soon - love those little devils!)

I think I'm calling the pilots and ground crew 'done'... If i take a good look at them in a few days or weeks, I will probably see some things to touch up.
Any tips are welcome !!

For now, back to the Camel !!

Thanks David. I've seen it before with Lego, tried it, first time works ok.
Pierre, Neil, welcome.

Looks like you found a rigging technique that works for you.

Nice rigging. My experience (with other brand) was to put a tiny drop of cyrano and then stretch the rigging thread to touch it, wait for it to dry a few seconds and then cut the excess. But I did it only once, not sure how thick it was

Keep it up 👍
I know the feeling - these new fancy elastic super-thin keep curling all the time 🙁

Thanks Moreno. Decals on the other side are also in place, though not trouble-free...
Only the fixed landing gear now and the last pieces of rigging.

I agree with Ben! The rigging is very good, as the general finish!!!!

Looks good, respect for that middle part of rigging, over the engine and MGs 👍
