Day 7 Update. 

Got the decals on.  Now it needs to sit undisturbed until tomorrow.  I still need to add some details to the ejection seat, paint the Sidewinders and landing gear.

This is inspired work, Ed!  I like the way you even remembered to rotate some of the tailcodes for vertical configuration.

Really, really enjoying this build.

Day 8

Doesn't look a lot different.  Put on a coat of flat and then after that dried, I used some pastel chalks to slightly emphasize the panel lines.  This shot shows it half done.  You can see the subtle difference between the two wings.

I don't think I've ever seen such a striking paint schem. Mezmerizing...... :mellow:

I agree with Eddie, it's definitely got a 'Caribbean' look to it.

If I hadn't had my morning's exceptionally strong coffee I would think this was a dream. STUNNING!  :wub:
