Under primer , those rib tapes look pretty damn good  :) Is this a decal ? or is something on the lines of thin tape ?

Xan,
      Beautiful work as usual. Your builds are always a pleasure to watch. Now, a question:

- Was the kit designed to have the lower wings fit flush against the fuselage? If so, will you have to move the strut attachment points to compensate for moving them both out?

Just curious.
