we are going to need a bigger top wing 🤣

Double stringing that rigging line is a PITB ain't it? Maybe a spot of glue to get that pig tail to lay down. I've been trying to think of how to make it look like how they have the pig tail wrapped but coming up short.
 
A problem i had with Italeri a while back was the plastic becoming ultra brittle when subject to Spirits based washes. I couldn't prove it either way in tests but i found the wing struts on this model seemed to lose the pin ends very easily after being painted with spirit based oils ?
The pin ends are 1mm which is handy as i was able to drill the end of the struts 0.5mm, incert a hard steel pin and then fix some 1mm alloy tube over the steel pin on abouty 50% or the struts
