poppy....Thanks, the transformation has started this evening. The evil aluminum undergoes a metamorphosis!

On my Nieuport I mixed some light gray with silver. It tones down the sheen. This is lookin' good!

New heat gun purchased...goal met, upper wing covered.

A lot of it will be painted over grey and black. After the markings not much will show. The wings will not be silver. I wish the Nieuport Co. did not use silver as their factory color!!!

AL is difficult to deal with, this though, looks top notch.

I covered the bottom of the upper air foil. Like the real thing it is cambered. My heat gun died. Off to get a new one tomorrow.

Feathers are pinned in place. Just realized....no fin. The whole rudder is hinged.

Al is not my favorite color to apply. This may still need some TLC.
