Gregory. Outstanding prep work for the shading. The wing undersurfaces look terrific.

Rick,
Many thanks my old friend. Your comments are greatly appreciated. Looks like l'll be repainting the underside again. The paint used has dried up.
Not too sure about buying more MisterKit paints after the chipping lncident.
Highest Regards,
Gregory Jouette

You haven't lost your touch, my friend!  The preliminary painting looks fantastic!  I can't wait to see how you tackle the 5 color camo.  Will you be using positive and negative masks to keep the paint distribution even, allowing the rib work to show through evenly?  I'm at the same stage on my 1/48 SPAD XIII (been stuck there for over three years), so I'm going to be following you really closely.  This is getting exciting!
Cheers,
Bud
