That is one beautiful DH.2, GCN. Most inspiring! May I ask what material(s) you used for the rigging?

Thanks for the comments guys.

For the structural rigging I used knit in elastic, it's manufactured by a company called prym and costs under £2 for a spool. Wingnuts sell it for $16.

For the control rigging (black) I used thin ez line. My only gripe with that is the black can rub off and mark the paint work, which can be cleaned up but on my white bristol I did not all could be got off.

She's truly stunning, Gary.  Your painting, shading and weathering are all brilliantly done and the rigging is perfect.  Outstanding build all around.
Cheers,
Bud

Looks amazing. Fine CDL shading on the wings undersides. All in all - a great model!
What colour have you used for the PC8?
