I just used a fine point pen to mark the canopy and the area around it where I wanted to put the glue, used a soft artist paint brush to apply the glue. Alcohol removed the lines. Just the lines to the wood and the plastic, very easy. Once it was set up I filled the lip around the plastic with thinned down wood filler and sanded flush so the canopy flows seamless into the fuse. As you can see, I painted the area where the canopy is mounted but with the 4 colors I have I'm still debating if I will still use the blue or not around the canopy? I will paint around the canopy around the area of the inside fuse. The two part epoxy paint is very easy to work with too and covers plastic as well as wood. I love working with the epoxy paints and hope my skills with an air brush have improved. I want to make this plane as colorful as I can but still be able to see it in the air. For that I need to use as much yellow as I can. Being color blind, to me the red and orange will just blend in as one color but I hope the blue will be easy for me to see with the yellow? Being a float plane I don't think it will mater or not with the big floats hanging down and it really isn't a stunt plane so I see no problems. With the side skirts on it the plane has a bunch of side area too. This should be fun!!
