Looks amazing! The stencils for the Numbers worked like a charm. Well done!

Thank you. I hope it looks half as good as yours. It has been a fun build even with the masks. Which my first time and I see why so many people are using them instead of decals.

Hi:

I painted the Danish Navy pennants last night. They didn't work as easily as the numbers did; of course, the numbers were only one step. I am liking this whole stencil versus decal thing though. Thank you for looking.

The initial shape for the white background.







The stencil for the red flag portion.







The finished product after touching up the edges.

Looking great, Fred. I like a scheme without the lozenge! Where/how did you do the exhaust?

A modeler made me the exhaust. The early aircraft had black fuselage numbers and the conventional six pipe exhaust.

I think the pennant came out great. I also like stencils, just wish I had the equipment to do it Myself rather than relying on others  ::)

Thank you. I’m really liking the stencil thing. There is a guy in our club that dabbles with the Cricut and he made the stencils for me. I’m tempted to get the shilouette cutter and make my own, it can’t be that hard... The machine is so much more accurate than the circle cutter.

I installed the engine, radiator, and panels. It’s starting to really look like an airplane. Thank you
