Default first Foamy project

Hello you guys heres my first scratch built foamy Its not really designed of off a certain foamy airplane its kind of got a couple of designes in it but its roughly got a 35inch wing spread and a 35 inch fusslage it has fairly big control surfaces.

I have a couple of questions does it matter if the horzontal is above are below the horzontal halfe?
Is tester paint good for foam? and
I have the leading edge roughly six inches from the nose, A good spot?


Plan to go with:
The standered HS55 servous
A 6 channle gws receiver
phoenix 25 speedcontroler
A rimsfire motor
and not sure on the battary yet


Ill update as I go

Looks good kind of like a Yakish Katana.
As far as the testors I've heard of some guy's using it. Try it on a test peice. I know that the Krylon H20 works just use multiple light cotes.
