I agree it does look a bit "flat". Still prefer it to the first one though.
 
Agree with the flatness..... But,

Can you punch a panel to go Over it????? The thinnest styrene perhaps?
Or, if you have some thin Clear cover from a package or blister pack, glue an extra print to the back side, then Drill holes to match, this would be much easier and more control for hole locations. When the front is painted the template would never be seen....

Yah think?
 
yeah I like the first personally with all the white, just dirty it up with a bit of Yellowish/dirt wash over the panels to lessen the white and it should be fine. The 2nd option looks a bit chunky

You have inspired me to do a Zero in this GB I hope I finish one this time

Am also thinking the second is a little flat looking, prefer the first but toned down a tad with a bit of dust maybe. Once it is closed up some of the sharpness will help to make it be seen.
 
Well, thanks for all the input fellas, went with Plan C! found some more dial decals and overlaid some of them WHITE ones....looks much better now, will be ready for pics tomorrow night...

Yep a 30 minute thingy from the eastern States and a 1.5 hour difference from Western Australia....unique in the world I think? We DO want to be different...

Now back to the cockpit.....Plan C as noted previously, cuts down that white dial stuff....and how it looks slotted in to the starboard fuselage....
