OK, a small (but significant), update for me. All remaining areas on fuselage that will receive lozenge have been painted to receive the decals tomorrow night.

Slowly but surely. Cowling area ahead of pit painted, lozenge decals being added. I'll hold off on the forward lozenge until after straightening out cowl stripes, to avoid masking over them. Getting an idea now of the overall effect.

AHHHHH! The Lozenge! I notice, like me, you infer that it will be done tomorrow night. Sadly, like me, it'll take longer........... much longer! Take your time, you've got a real beauty coming there and it's very apparent in the quality of your results to this point that you are not rushing past the optimum pace. Good work takes time, and you've got a great result coming along here.
Cheers,
Lance

Thank you very much fellas. Yes, planning for completion of certain tasks can sometimes run headlong into conflict with reality.  :)

Thanks tons Greg. Work will certainly continue later on today. I hope to complete forward stripe corrections, then add remaining lozenge.

OK, wheels get some filth. I got a bit carried away perhaps, but I can live with it.

OK, some more minor progress on this little machine today, With any luck at all, I'll finish the fuselage tonight.
