Default RE: 42% Super Decathlon Build

Although it´s not 42% scale, here a few pix of the last SD I am finishing at this moment, base on the full-size of the first picture. I made one concession, though - I finished the underside of the wing with the well known invasion stripes which makes it easier to distinguish the plane against the blue sky.

Finishing is going far quicker than usual as I am using Oracover instead of Oratex, so I don´t have to clearcoat the entire airplane, and also the sunray design is far easier to do than the deluxe starburst.
All trim done in Orastick. Although some of the pix show a darker yellow, it´s a lighting problem. I am using Cadmium Yellow Oracover, which is about the same as on the fullsize picture. As soon as I take some outdoor pictures, the color match will be much more noticeable. Same for the cowl paint (not yet clearcoated/fuelproofed)

Enjoy...
