What is the best material to rig small-scale Resin models?

Go to your local fishing supply store and get yourself some of the "fine" monofilament used for "fly-tying". This stuff comes in different colors and some of it is so gossamer it's hard to see. It gives a good "scale effect" in 1:350.

A couple of ideas..
  1. Fishing line (smallest breaking strain you can get). Paint black, or dark gray.
  2. Human hair...raid the hairbrush of some long-haired pretty thing (male or female), preferably blonde, straight hair and use that.
  3. Lady's stocking material...you know, the nylon filaments...can be a bit curly though...make sure they are fairly taut!
  4. Strands from "knicker elastic"...very difficult to get long lengths, but gives the finest filament possible...works superbly on aircraft rigging wires.

I strongly recommend that you rig last. Otherwise, you're pretty much guaranteed to damage the rigging.
