Thanks all for the kind feedback and comments! I just see so many great and amazing builds going on here that I sometimes feel my work isn't near that level and get a bit self conscious about posting....

Concerning the Modelkasten rigging line.

-It is black - I do not mind that but some like silver etc.
-it is elastic but somewhat more like fishing line vs. other brands of elastic I have tried
-it is round in cross section - there is none of the flatness and visible twisting of the line that I experienced with other brands
-I used the .13mm kind (vs the .2mm) and think it looks good on 1/32nd scale
-I had no trouble feeding it back through polymide tubing unlike other elastics I have tried.
-I purchased from Hobby Link Japan (hlj.com)

I have some large temperature swings in my home and the models I have rigged with fishing line have shown significant sagging so being able to use a elastic line like this seems to be an excellent solution to keep them tight.....

She looks awesome! Great job on the weathering of the fuselage and wings.

   Very nice work Petrov, no need to feel that way with a Model like this! Glad you shared it with all! 8)
