All the prep work is done.  Here are the first two of quite a number of lines.

I was just thinking that the pod on the fuselage side would make a wonderful arming plug........

Beautiful, Joe. I don't know how you have the patience to build it OR the guts to fly it. A literal tip of the hat to you!  H^^

 Great looking model. I always find it refreshing to see scale appearing, or "believable" panel lines being represented instead of just generic random lines and patterns simply filling the space. The extra attention and effort makes all the difference.  y1

Thanks Wayne.  I tried to follow the panel lines shown on diagrams from a Tamiya plastic kit and several 3-views I got from one of the scale model documentation businesses.  I may have gone a little overboard since this is not a true scale project, but I have had some fun dressing the plane up.

Finally!!!  All the decorating is done.  The ink lines are done and all the decals are on.  I need to coat the new additions with auto blender for protection and to try smoothing the decal bumps.  With any luck I’ll apply the clear coat on Friday.

 Yep that's what I mean, they don't have to be 100% accurate to scale, just use some references to create a good "believable" representation.  y1
