Finally finished my electric legacy in the weekend and here it is - came in at 63 ounces with all the electrics, including the battery... looking forward to getting it in the air next weekend

Lookin good Wynn, what finish did you use? Is it a kit or scratch ?? Good luck with the flying at least you have better weather "Down Under" than up here. y1 y1

Very nicely done, Wynn. I like that the silver trim is somewhat subtle, rather than a contrasting BOLD color. And it's clever how you made the transition in the silver pattern, blending from wing to fuselage.....neat.
Couple of questions:
1) How did you make the narrow, black pin stripes around the edges of the silver?
2) What were your finishing material? Using electric opens up a lot of new opportunities in paint selection.
TIA
Cheers.

thanks guys
covering was doped tissue - two layers on main wing, one one the fuse and tailplane
Finish is all rattle can auto paint - all Dupli colour, used high build primer as first coat to fill, sanded 90% of it off, then colour coats
I used the "forward masking" technique to paint this - I painted the black trim lines first, then put the tape on and sprayed the white, masked over that then sprayed the red, I have a LOT to learn on painting - I think the next one will be a lot better.

Very nice, good graphics!

I like it a lot. Very simple and effective paint scheme. I like subtle.

I would have guessed Monokote.
