Well the weather has been crap so thought i should push on with the Zero refurb ,it has been stripped off and recovered with glass cloth, i have put flush rivets and panel lines to make it a bit more scale ,and of course the old covering was coming off anyway, it has been primed and finished in two pack klass Kote

Few pictures of the paint job.

 The rivets will show up in daylight better .

    A nice close up of the wing will show the rivets better

Wish I had the patience to glass a model.... You do it so well and quickly.
I look forward to seeing it fly with the superb ZDZ 40.

What's the model on the bench to the left (no6 on the tail) and the other at the back of the workshop showing it's tail end?
