Mooneyzs Posted April 8, 2011 Author Share Posted April 8, 2011 (edited) I have finished all of the decals and it's ready for one last coat of clear to seal in the decals. Then once the clear is done just need to paint the inside of the body black and glue the front nose onto the chassis. Here is the model fully decaled: Edited July 9, 2017 by Mooneyzs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mooneyzs Posted April 11, 2011 Author Share Posted April 11, 2011 (edited) I was able to clear the decals this weekend, So I am one more step of being closer to having this build completed. Happy to have this done. Now on the to do list is paint the underneath of the body flat black and under the nose piece. Then its just gluing the nose piece onto the frame.

Mooneyzs Posted April 15, 2011 Author Share Posted April 15, 2011 Dogfish... Thanks! Well little update, last night I got the inside of the body painted flat black and the nose piece glued onto the frame. So technically it is completed. I need to get some pics taken of it and will try to post some pics the next few days. Hoping to maybe get home early from work and be able to take some while the sun is still out so you guy can see the paint in the sunlight .
