Just curious, did you glass this plane before finish or did you airbrush over iron on covering?

Mine as well. Mine will have to be shiny first, My planes weather just fine naturally.

Yes, the plane was glassed then painted. Most of the paint was applied with an automotive spray gun and the detail work done with airbrush and conventional brushes. And a bit of an update........ unfortunately due to a gear failure I had to belly land it and the wing suffered some significant damage. It's been repaired but a: doesn't look quite as pretty anymore and b: hasn't been flown since the repair. That said, it will fly again. Cheers, Dave
