Ok so I've decided on the change.

Had to start by re gluing the whole length of the lower fuselage.

nice, good looking scheme too

Like that choice..

 

[Donivanp]

So I started by re gluing the fuselage bottom and then cleaned up the seam. Using AK Chromate Yellow green I then re shot the gear wells and shot the lower as a primer to check the seam. There is still a little clean up to do but about there.

I'm slow but hey, shot a grey primer over what ever was already on and started pre-shading.
