Thank you for your answers, Yufei! Glad youāre still busy with this project. The weaponry looks great, I just hate the Russians who thought of the waffle-iron fins for the R-77ās! :) I understand that in injection-moulded plastic they canāt be see-through, the current aftermarket solution of stacking PE pieces doesnāt look too convincing either, Iām afraid.... Slotting very fine strips of brass or plastic together to form the pattern seems to me to be the only convincing-looking solution. I already start to hyperventilate when I think how many strips I have to cut with a scalpel to make those tiny slots!
I hope your foot problem will be healed soon!
Cheers, Erik.
