Thinning the wings is a big improvement indeed in this scale!

Looking forward to the detailing!

Thank you Marjin!
There is still a lot of work ahead to make the planes at a decent level
I need to remember all my skills in aircraft models. Before 2008, I assembled more than 50 aircraft models in 1/72 scale.

[SilverGhost]

I'm thinking, do I need to do engraved panel lines at ailerons and rudders using scriber in this scale or not?
Marjin, what do you think about it?

[marijn van gils]

That's personal preference I think.
Myself, I would only paint them on, as I think I can paint them finer than I can scribe them. But if you feel more comfortable with a scriber than a paintbrush, scribing would be the better option.

Cheers,

Marijn

Do you remember me?
I'm still here and building seaplanes.

This is test-build Kawanishi E7K2 1/700 for test using new features and practice before building 2 E8N2 and 2 E13A for cruiser.
I build building berth for making engraved panel lines (rudders, ailerons)


Complete Kawanishi E7K2 and prepare for painting
