now to fix the gap at the wing joint and get some primer on all the jet

Hopefully the next update will have a bit more progress and text, it s a bit of a pain to do this on an iPad using photobucket.

The paint is on and some advice is needed

now for the help, I have masked the tailplane and tomorrow will do the wing upper surface, but what colour do you all find matches the Boeing wing panel the best. Every other airliner I have built has had decals for the panels on the wing. I'll try matching those but thought I'd ask while I was here. 

Thanks for watching and your tips

Looking good there!

 

You are talking about the corogard sections Graham. The colour varies due to the age of the coating and lighting conditions. I usually use Tamiya metallic grey mixed with a light shade of grey ( to taste) for my corogard mix.

 

Not sure if you use Xtracolor paints, but they have Corogard their range (X331)
