Thanks guys. I got the rest of the top color on this morning. After letting it dry, I peeled off the masks and checked for bleed thrus. There are a couple of spots but nothing bad.



Here is a better shot of the underside. The green in the Sky Type "S" really shows here.





And here is the rest of the topcoat.







I'll let it dry for a few more hours and then start the weathering process.
 
Thought I would post a quick update. The engine, cowling and gear have been attached, then re-attached after the dogs tail sent it for it's first test flight. My dog and Terry must be related in some way, neither one likes 'Cats. Glosscote has been applied and decaling started to be followed by weathering.



 
Thanks Michael, Aaron and Glenn. Decals are done and weathering has started. It's a dark oil pinwash in the recesses and panel lines, to be followed by some drybrushing and highlighting with Prismacolor pencils. The carrier film on these decals is very thick, so I cut them as close as possible and am hoping the rest of the film will dissapear with a clear top coat.
