I'm using Tenax on the AFV CLub PaK 43/41 I have on the bench right now. It works great. Gives me rock solid joins and cures quickly.

Gil, the prop is painted and dipped in future. I masked it to keep the demarcations crisp. Maybe some day I'll try laminating and carving one, but not today. The rigging is 7x (.004) fly fishing tippet. I attached it with super glue, then used a soldering iron to tighten it. I Dullcoted everything after I had tightened the rigging, so it accumulated on the rigging and gave it some texture (for lack of a better term). Thanks everyone for all the kind words.

Ken, that's what was called out in the instructions. I seem to recall something about natural rubber having a pinkish color. I could be completely wrong though, I often am.

Eduard 1/48 Albatros D.V. This is from the Dual Combo boxing. Built OOB with the kit decals. I was accused by my daughter of only building grey planes. Build log here

Ken, Thanks for the info. I looked all over and couldn't find it. Jon

I have an Eduard 1/48 Albatros D.Va that I have thus far built OOB. If I use stretched sprue for the rigging would it still be considered OOB? TIA, Jon
