Those decal letters go on the bottom of the wing and are next up.

Although the white band at the rear is not on the reference scheme, it is on the box art and I used it to highlight the red letter.

Siegfried's Rhein Stuka will be based on this one based in The Balkans in 1941.

Excellent, I could use better paint adhesion.
David Duckett, Comment for image # 1137016 Mar 09 07:54
The reason for that is that it allows the acrylic paint to better adhere to the plastic parts.

I don't think I've ever doped my plastics, thanks for the tip.

Fantastic!very cool

Heavy grade silkspan was attached wet with clear nitrate dope and then entire structure, including the plastic parts, was given two coats of clear dope, That was sanded lightly and now two coats of acrylic have been applied. Several more coats will go on before I start with the actual colors I'll use.

The first color coats show where work is needed, such as on the end of the stabilizer. The canopy has been painted with a clear mask. And...thanks for the nice words!!
