Hello
I modelled some sail wings for some FR models, here's what I did:
I cut some very thin plastic card to the shape I wanted, glued some thin
wires
around the edges and accross the surface to depict the ribs, then I
glued, using
PVA glue, some tissue paper over the whole thing. The reulting object
looked
like a cloth sail with ribs underneath, but was strong. I was pleased
with the
results. Happy moddelling!
Peace & Love
Geoffrey
