TColt,
Your plane looks great and you look proud standing there.
I am gathering all my necessities to build mine when it gets here. Still not sure if I just have Skymaster deliver in primer or do a scheme on it. I really like the F4G version and it will require some changes as well as paint. I know I cannot get the same paint here in California which means the paint will not match what Skymaster applies. I have seen where some guys are now using latex paint diluted with distilled water and it is resistant to kerosene. Inexpensive alternative and I could paint it in my garage with easy cleanup.
