Thanks all! Hot and humid today. Already 72F and headed towards 90! Heading to the Piddle Palace in a bit.

Ooooh she’s in the paint stage! NICE!

Thanks, Kenny! I rubbed it real good and hit it with some (ready?) Krylon Metallalic Silver. I like this stuff. Just about a dead match for the Tamiya Flat Aluminum. Here is the aircraft I've settled on...

Why? I have the Stars/Bars in the kit decals and I can easily make the tail number and "415". Is the red dot the fuel filler point? I can't tell from pictures.

Oh I do like that one. The red surround on the star & bars is a nice splash of color.

Great choice Lyle - That'll look really good.

Stik, thanks. Now to mask the anti-glare areas! Fix the tailwheel (yes, I broke it...but found it), add the windows, add the gear, do the decals and I'm done!

Thank you! I thought this had enough color.

Lyle, you and those tail wheels do not get along well in construction....

Boy, that is for sure!

You’re making the right move. She’ll look mighty sweet done-up like that!

Thank you!
