Status: offline 		I'm looking for some close up photos of the opening in the Cub's cockpit roof (circled in the photo).

I want to add some detail and have no info on the way it is on the real one (BTW it's a 1/4 scale Clipped Wing version).

Thanks to anyone who can help. I'm attempting to incorporate as much detail as practicle, have already began rib stitching and tapes.

I have read lots of negative comments on this material but this is my third model being covered with it (previously used it on a 1/3 scale Druine Turbulent, then on a Sig Smith Miniplane) and I find it very strong and puncture resistant, very light, and very easy to apply.

Here's another view, and also one with some of the rib stitching in process (home made).

Thanks for the photos here, I will now be able to better simulate that paneling around the skylight window.

Hi rorry limited english, i'm just a ww1 builder, looking that video at minuts 1:50 ,i understand that this is a material for me ,but not just for me......., for all ww1 models !
Please when apply this material, you before wet it and then apply to the balsa? or you wet when it is on the wings or fuselage?

When it dries it shrinks back to its original size.
It is all detailed on the instruction sheet.
