That is a good recovery Tom, will two coats be enough do you think?

| The wife has stated that if it was a real aircraft it would be too heavy to take off with the amount of paint on it!. |

Mrs ColinM said something similar about me recently, don't think paint was mentioned though....

I have painted the canopy but it has gone a bit astray with wonky lines.
So I am going to scrape the paint off and use decal stripes. They are xtradecal ,available from Hannants and come in different colours.
I used them on the Sunderland I built which you can see in Toms builds. |
