Thanks, Paul. This one has been fun thus far!
Over the past couple of days of vacation, I tried to get the tails painted so they kind of resemble clear doped linen. I'm calling it done now. I may add some random spots on the bottom and top with a damp tooth brush to represent dirt etc. and this may help it look more translucent. I still need to mask off the rudder cross but this looks alright to me.
Now I just need to reproduce these colors etc. on the soon to be constructed wings. Oh, boy!
More soon...Dan
