Frank's idea is good and certainly sanding the canopy flat is a good start to any improvement - then of course you have to polish off the sanding marks - no big deal.  

Building on the same basic approach, I have also painted clear decal sheet with camo colours and then cut very thin strips and "decaled" the canopy to create canopy frames.  If you want to get really particular, make internal green the first colour and then your exterior as the next colour.  That way, you see the "internal" frame colour when looking through the canopy.  

Both approaches are good - it just depends on your personal preferences.  And how much patience you have.  Thin decal does tear fairly easily so you need your wits about you.  

Yours still looks very interesting
