Looks fantastic Marc. What sort of contruction material are you using and how did you apply the paint (spray ?) Is that a primer coat on the bottom?

Hi,

we built everything from plywood and hardboard. The paint is only applied once as everything still needs a bit of sanding and filling in with Molto Fugenspachtel. I use some Ral 7011 from which I have 2,5 Liters (wayyy too much but it is the best colour I could find) I only use spray on the panels later on. It is possible that the measurements are not 100% accurate and there is a difference here and there but me and my grandfather we were focusing on getting a smooth and natural look while looking at pictures from real aircarfts and other builders.
