Scale 50% Dalotel 165

I didn't like the results of the paint, I believe , the paint was too thick to spray, soooo I rolled up my sleeves and sanded for near 4 hours, cleaned, re-taped add a bit more windshield washer in the paint , then sprayed again, wow what a difference, now I like it , learn something every day
 
trim done

I'll try to get more pictures in, when I'm intense on something I completely forget about the camera.
So now I'm getting the aileron ready for covering, still lots to do, and files and sanded the landing gear strut, reprimed it and add a bit of glazing putty
