        I've had some success with the mould but I'm using far too thick plasticard/styrene sheet to pick up the detail of the ribs...
        Well, it was worth a try.
        I could build a small jig for vacuum forming the wing instead but it's going to require a powerful vacuum pump considering the thick styrene I'm using so the easiest option is to wing it (pun intended ) and shape it by hand, with heat and sanding.

        I've got plenty of time to tinker with this until the Panther is done so I don't mind these little side projects to make the parts I need. In fact this is the best way to learn new stuff and not worry about the failures!
