Then put on some xxxspan that I had with polycrylic and getting something that I can try out with. Picked up some Wicked colors from hobby lobby, and looking to get the airbrush soon. So I am on the way. And yes, you are right, not too many people will put forth the effort but I will be one of them.

Not sure on the silk/poly span that I used but it was 13 grams for two sheets, about 33" by 24". there does seem to be a technique to putting that one, but one more thing to learn. Probably my first plane to try this all out on will be an AR6 Q40 plane that I am building the wing for. It will have to be glass because I need the strength on the outside of the wing; but I can still employ these techniques anyways.

Here is a place that has some vector drawing to download, so that may limit a step for some.

Doug,

The last Austral graphic that you painted, what is that font name? I've never seen it but I like the way it came out. I would love that for my NMPRA numbers, especially painted.

Thanks
Doug
