Glad I subscribed, your videos are really helpful, especially because you call out the paints you use. I discovered that Tamiya premier a few months ago and it is excellent with a nice smooth covering. I think when you complete the wings and rigging, that will detract from the scaling of the wing which Airfix probably made thicker to add a bit of strength for assembling the struts and rigging, ( just a thought). I'm anxious to try that lacquer plus see how it does on the silver. Standing by for part three

Glad to have you on board. I’m working on the wing now. Video to come showing the changes I’ve made to it. 👍😀

Looked at references you have seen already. I think you can imagine is the same as any period similar trailing edge. Looks to be a rolled over two-fat fingers thick. Should you care this time? If you like. You are the hero. heh

Maybe you could have done a half and half with the two sets of decals?? When on the shelf it could be turned around to reveal both ! ( just a thought). By the way the real metal looks head and shoulders above any paint ! Kudos to your patience. Ray bham

Sounds like a plan on the decals but the top wing has either zig zag lines or a green stripe 🤷♂️😀

I was wondering how you dealt with metallic pigments using Tamiya Flat Aluminum?
