Nice work, one of the meanest looking aircraft ever made in my opinion.
And the Tamiya kit is incredibly well engineered even by their high standards.

Daniel,
Okay, so I focus on the obscure and unimportant, but what/how is the tarp on the wing made?

Hi Ted, I made the tarp with kitchen paper. I put some water with plastic adhesive, then I put the paper inside the mixture so it get wet. I took out the paper and put it on the wing. The I painted it. In spanish we call it " carta pesta", I´m not sure how you call it in english
