PhantomBigStu Posted August 14, 2019 Author Share Posted August 14, 2019 Saved the canopy with some finer grades, though now waiting for it to dry where I washed the toothpaste off used previously to help polish it, should mean though the last paint on the canopy can go on later and it will be decal ready, decided to enquire about the paint for the fgr2, will be a wait to import it but not that long, scheme is the blue one.
