I have been tinkering with the rear dive planes and rudder, and have made a mock-up of them from styrene sheet.
These 'control surfaces' (I hate that expression) have ribs like the bones in a duck's webbed feet, and I have replicated that using some half round styrene rod. To smooth out the edges, I melted some styrene sprue in the Solvent Welding liquid and applied that to feather out the edges a little.
I have yet to finally sand down the parts and apply some primer.
