Musketeer is in the paint shop for some more primer over the corrugated control surfaces. I was going to use a coarse thread but that was not working out. I purchased some 1 mm tape that seem to do the job better than thread.

Looks very convincing. How do you maintain the even spacing?

The spacing was measure with a ruler and marked out at 5 mm apart. Once those were on I just placed the others in the middle using the Mk I Eyeball. The Musketeer is in the drying shop for the next two days before masking and painting the yellow. I was planning on painting the yellow first until I noticed the corrugated control surfaces.

Two days of heavy rain and very high humidity delayed applying the yellow. Now 3 days to cure and the yellow will be applied to the top side.

Decals are printed but damp weather is holding back the clear gloss spray.

Your model has a " crisp" look to it. The detailing and eye-popping paint scheme really bring the model to life. Fantastic job Lou!

Thanks
