I have a few more graphics to apply and do a little touch up, apply clearcoat and the Pretender will be done.

Nice job Mike! My airplanes are still monocolor since they're likely to get hurt as a new control line flyer. The longer they last the more opportunity I'll have to start adding some color.

That is perfectly OK Marty and probably a very good idea.  When I got back in the hobby several years ago after a long absence, I basically just covered them and fuel proofed them with butyrate dope and flew them.  Did not even paint some of them.  Still to this day I do not spend months finishing a model because I know I am going to crash them at some point. 
The whole point is to have fun.
