Good save John! :shoutout: You should be sure to add that little mishap in your next book; it would be valuable for others to see how a master modeler fixes the glitches that inevitably come along. :grin:

Thanks!

I forgot to show the bottom images from the last update. You can see that I painted the recesses for the flaps in Zinc Chromate Yellow.

The fuselage star was masked off and the bottom fuselage stripes were painted.

Painting of the markings continue... the white stripes on the tail are masked and sprayed.

Image

After the white stripes dried, I applied the masks for the aircraft codes and numbers.

Image

Now that the major markings have been completed, we put the model in the light box to capture progress of the build to this point. There are some differences in sheen as some parts have been given a gloss coat (i.e. flaps, fuselage stars and bars).

Very well done, as I expected. No sign of a hiccup.

There was a problem? :hmm:
