Default RE: Hangar 9 Tuskeegee P-51D Creamer's Dream

Richard, how hard was it to strip the covering? I've been considering doing something similar to an entire H9 P-51. I've always liked the lines on the P-51D, but I don't want the typical American paint scheme. I'd love to redo one in a Canadian Scheme. 404 Sqn had them painted in the typical British format, green and grey camo, with a yellow stripe on the nose. Would be pretty cool and different looking.

But I'm worried that it's a bit too much work to strip the WHOLE thing. I'd probably have to cover it all in light grey, and then spray paint the dark grey and green on top.
