[Hippy Ed]

I'm guessing you need an air condition paint booth and a battery charger .

Good progress

The yeller is laid down on the tail & horizontal stabilizers. Added a few drops of White to the Chrome Yellow which gives it a lighter shade. I'll post pics ina bit... Now when the Aluminum gets here, I'll be able to finish her up :drinks
