It IS a pretty plane. At this point I was considering racing stripes instead of these decals.

I learned about panel lines from Poppy who does some of his free hand. I'm not so brave. These are some of the templates I used for drawing the panel lines. They're made of .010" and .020" styrene.

The P/F-80 wore many colors, from aircraft gray to pure red or orange. This is light gray with silver added.

At 107 degrees, it's taken me three days to cover the F-80 but it's done now and ready for multiple coats of dope before painting. The advantage to the heat is that each coat dries quickly.:-)
