After a very thin cote of varnisch , i fiiled the panel lines with black-ish paint and then washed the most of it away to highlight them. Never done this before but educated myself with dozens of video's and magazines. Hope it turns out OK... -

Hello all , I can't believe my last post is from July '24 There are several reasons for my absence. First , i couldn't use my spraybooth due to other Jobs Second , i ruined my decals and had to make paintmasks instead , Third , i had some health issues , and fourth , all these hurdles took away the courage to finish this model , so close to the end... Anyways , i'm slowly but sure working evenings to complete this beauty and hope by the start of the flying season i can show it to all of you ! In a few days the pics will take you back to the paintbooth and workshop.See you all ! Almost forgot : HAPPY NEW YEAR !! -

My deepest condolences Iris. I Just found out the sad news RIP Chris... We got to know eachother via the forum and met at a few shows. He even became a client and trusted me to keep his car in good shape. He was allways the first to react at my posts on the forum...God i will miss him. FLY HIGH CHRIS

Hi all ! Slow but certain progress... The soft edges are done with 3M masking foam strips. Then try not to spray under them. X
