It often ends up being too thick, though layers of paint can help blend it in.
A good picture of the Procter, fin and rudder ribbing can be seen on page 74 of Action Stations 8. Military Airfields of Greater London by B. B. Halpenny
I'm experimenting with Plastruct 0.8mm triangle strips. Still not convincing. Skill is blending it in.
It's threads like this that keep me revisiting this forum. Thanks for sharing.
