I managed to get some more work done on "Louie". The tail section was masked off and painted Model Master "Deep Yellow". The preshading shows through fairly well, some might say too much. I thought it would work well for a bird that was in North Africa. The wheels are glued on the landing gear and the tail wheel has been installed as well. I still need to paint the tail wheel well Zinc Chromate Green, which I will probably do by hand, just to save myself the trouble of masking it off. All of the touch up painting has been done. I've got a laundry list of things that still need to be done, including in no particular order: the radio aerial mast, the radio aerial, brake lines (Thanks Steve!), cowl flaps, sliding canopy section, radiator intake, exhausts, prop and spinner, and of course, the ring and bead gunsight. At some point I'll get to clear coating and decaling.
