Hello,
I have finished all the rigging (almost). There remain the flight control cables, brakes and other stuff to stick.
The flat rigging are in "evergreen" as thin as possible and stretched with an embers (match). The hardest part is to stick them securely.
The rigging between the wings are made of fishing line as well as those on the tail
The tail is fixed with a small piece of steel wire that fits into the brass rod and into the pierced wing. To my surprise it's pretty solid. I have not broken it yet despite the many manipulations.
Only worries is the size of the wings, they distort when I turn the plane and the rigging take off. The wings tend to make the swing around the attachment of the undercarriage under the fuselage.
The big cockroach on the back:
It is for gluing flat shrouds ...
The empennage will be glued at the end, fixed on two half-washers from the kit:
The rudder I had painted, with love and the greatest care, is ... black on all the pictures I've seen. So I covered with black and I took the opportunity to let appear the colors of the undercoat. The serial is fictitious and the font too "modern". The decals come from Corsair Heller.
The pipes supplying the engine with fuel made of lead wire glued.
Regards
Huberlu
