Sprayed a satin coat over the upper surfaces to tone down the shine. Gary S. MLV MMXXIV
 
Thanks!! It's going to be a while until it's finished. I'm going to have retinal surgery this Thursday and won't even be able to read for a couple of weeks. What am I to do while on the crapper? Gary S. XLV MMXXIV

Cleaned up and touched up the canopy. The open top was attached with a strip of masking tape painted black. The panel line were accented with white oil paint. The exhaust stains will be next. Gary S. XLV MMXXIV

Then brown chalk was used to enhance the exhaust stains. Gary S. XLV MMXXIV

Thanks Mike and Bob!! With a little work they look fine. This is being done OOB or else I would have replaced the antenna on the rt. boom with the football shaped one and painted it gray. Too bad this plane wasn't saved along with the USS Enterprise. Gary S. XLV MMXXIV
