Jim,
      the rib stations and tapes on the Nie.11 are very prominent in the
museum example you have posted. This is a subject that has caused debate in
the past, just as how much curvature is there between wings, etc. The bottom
line IMHO is that is depends on the a/c baing discussed, the finish used,
and the scale being modeled.
    In the case of the Nie.11, and in you case specifically of modeling one
in 1/48th I would say that the attempt would be worth it. For some others
probably not. Since I am attempting to build in 1/72nd, very little needs to
be done, because very little of that detail can be seen. Make sense?

Gotta go to class in a bit.
