capri-schorsch Posted February 24, 2013 Author Share Posted February 24, 2013 (edited) Hello, the color part is done now. It's a fifty-fifty feeling for me. On one site its looking good with the white stripes on. On the other side there are some parts who must be repaired with the pencil and one bigger part under the front grill with sanding paper. It is still a lot of work to do before i can set the first decal on it. But it's ok for this masking marathon. kind regard Christian Christian Edited February 24, 2013 by capri-schorsch 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capri-schorsch Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 Some sunny shots of today.

macgregor Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Quite good!!!! This is turning into the mutts nuts! Its just lovely, having owned a couple of Capri's 20 odd years ago I've got a soft spot for the old lady & cant wait to see this finished .

Bennygman Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I've said it before and I'll say it again, this is exactly why I need to get out of the aviation forums more. The quality of work in the other subject forums is quite stunning at times and this is a perfect example. I'm in awe. Steve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
