Thanks Mattias. I will post a picture of the technique I used for getting
the wing angle, it involves using a hinge underneath the wing, and a
different type of hinge on top.
The markings are made using my inkjet and some Avery full sheet adhesive
backed paper. The results are okay, I wish I had a better means for making
them though, as up close they don't look as good as I would like.
I hope to have more and better pictures after this weekend, I have ordered a
new 4 megapixel digital camera and some equipment for lighting and backdrop
so that my lego work can have better presentation. My old olympus digital
camera just isn't cutting it anymore. I may even have my A6M2 Zero done by
then.
Thanks again for the comments,
