Isn't the fabric sagging on the wings a bit overdone?

Edit:

Or the thickness of the stringers (or how they are called) on the wing?

Possibly, but a quick look at some photos (I'm at work and don't have all my references to hand) suggests the upper surface of the wings IS pretty corrugated-looking. When I get one, if I think it's a problem, the three of us* will sort it out.

* = Me, Mr Wet and Mr Dry :D

Last renders were dedicated to small Avia.

As you can see, Eduard will release more versions of this Czech airplane.

_MG_6303.JPG

Moreover, they re-made some elements so that assembly is easier.

_MG_6304.JPG

All joints and connections now should be simpler in assembly.

_MG_6305.JPG

Yes, they will even release Avia with arrestor hook.

_MG_6307.JPG

This was the version that underwent trials on the Graf Zeppelin carrier.

Of course, all golden parts are PE parts.

New boxing in April 2017 - 

 

AFAIK -there is many new corrected parts included - ie. new wings

Redesign not so deep as in 48 Gustav, but this is not a simple rebox with new box and decals.

Were there problems with the initial boxings?

"new boxing" name is still wrong, both fuselage and wing sprues are retooled.

Not only so much visible wing ports but engine cover shape issues are repaired too.

And B 534 Series 1, Series 2 versions are different from Series 3 like Bf 109F and G from Bf 109K.
