Thanks everyone. I'm going to seal it, the humidity here is fairly high at 
times so it's pretty much a given. This is the first model from Zio that I've 
done and I have to say that even though they take a bit to build the effort 
certainly leaves one with a feeling of satisfaction.

Neat work on this little fellow Bones.

Zio's designs are a challenge but such a reward when completed.

Subject: [Papermodels II 50182] Zio Prudenzio

I've been working on other projects and the Saladin has been neglected
however I felt like some cardmodelling and have wanted to build one of
Zio's models for a while.

It was only one small page...how hard could it be ?....

Well these models are seriously nice to build but they aren't easy. I
finished the SE5a today and rather thought some rigging might be nice so
that's what I did, it's stretched sprue, much easier to manage than
monofilament or cotton and looks pretty good when all said and done. The
rigging is only basic and nowhere near what is on the original. I did a
quick calculation and I think the model is about 1/60. I cheated and put
a plastic pilot in the seat...ya do what ya gotta do. A zippo lighter is
shown for scale.

Sadly Zio is no longer with us but his models live on, nice models that
look great when finished even if a bit of effort is required.
