Is that just a test fit of the wings or have you a bit of gap filling to do.

Shot the first coat of aluminum on lower wing and fuselage. Helps show up all your flaws, me thinks, yes, yes it does show up all your flaws. Testers Model Master acrylics. Love the paint, hate the labels.

Acrylic paint seems to be too grainy. I use enamels because of that. I still have Model Master metalizer and the original formula Alclad. I have yet to try the Alclad.

As do I but for this purpose, the Testers Aluminum, not the Metallizer Aluminum but just the Aluminum is right as it is a aluminum dope paint we are looking for. Grainy is right!

Please replace your monitor with one that it does not look so sparkly, this should fix your problem. Trust me I've done computer support before (been a long long time and no one clamed I was any to good at it, but TRUST ME)Looks very sparkly on my monitor.
