Rivets

I am getting a start on the right bottom half of the wing.

I needed more rivets so I asked Chad to print up some white ones.
This should cover better then the gray or silver. I am not doing weathering so I don't need silver.

With this Klass Kote primer the rivets apply much better. I haven't had one pull up yet. It was a struggle at times on the fuselage.
The stitching should do better to. On the elevator and ruder some of the ends of the stitching lifted when I was painting.
Should go pretty quick and far as the rivets go, the stitching and glue drops will take a bit more time.
