The scallops look superb... but damn working over white with red... and I spy the gaffe on the fuselage striping... :headslap:

That’s why I like combat aircraft... :whistle:

The scallops are a bear to do freehand.

That is why I cut them on the Silhouette cutter.

Both sides of the fuselage will need repainting. Actually the entire fuselage will. When removing the tape, the spine opened up last me the Griswold’s turkey on National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation.

Thanks. I am more pleased with that than anything I’ve done recently. Now to get the rest shaped up.

Thank you. Used green frog tape and burnished pretty thoroughly. If only the sides behaved as well. But, I am happy with the horizontal surfaces.

Tomorrow’s foibles will be interesting!
