Default A6 Fuselage Panel Definition

Basspilot,

Thank you for asking.

Answering your initial question...The one piece movie fuselage utilized as the plug for our upgrading to a two piece fuselage had no panel line definition. Panels on the 8 movie A6's were painted on. Below are a few pics of the movie 6's left wing top. Below pics I will continue to explain surface details on the MAC6's.

The Yellow A4 was paneled with perm acrylic adhesive (non-bubbling) CNC cut vinyl. The vinyl provides subtle panel definition of the prominent surface features.

My hel-purrrr.
