Fancy Foam - Mini Ultimate Series Part 2



Painting


Well I did a quick read of the instructions. Looks pretty straight forward. So I thought about it for a few days and also looked on the Fancy Foam site Gallery for paint schemes. Did some more thinking and decided to go for it.

Here are some pix showing the initial setup before painting.

I chose Testors Paint 2905 Burgundy Red Metallic and proceeded with my striping. I painted the top wing on its topside fully and the bottom wing on its bottom with strips. I duplicated this scheme with the elevator.

For the nose and rudder I masked out some foam to give it some "coming and going" color.

Total paint usage 1.5 cans.

Wife likes the outcome. But I'm not too happy with the overspray and paint seepage..
