Hey Everybody! F I N A L L Y !!!!!!!!! I get to start on my Gee Bee, I went out to the Painter 5 months ago But now look at it!!!! Totally worth the wait!!! It Is Pearl White and Metal Flake Red! And All the Lettering is all Air Brushed on. And If you will Notice, No Seams!!! Anywhere!!! Woo Hoo!!! Now I can Finally Mount my Moki!!..... Ill Keep you guys posted during my build!
Sorry, it´s only my opinion.

Please NEVER paint a Gee Bee with Pearl and Metal Flake. This airplane is not a Chip Foose customs car!! Please!! It´s a 1932 RACE PLANE.

1932 they Granvilles painted the plane with brush and gloss paint. Easy and cool.

And look on the markings, they are not on the original position. Why?

I think the quality of the paint job is very good, but I do not like the look - sorry**
