Brother!! Wow!! Looks so good man. I am so happy for you. Been so much fun following. Thank you for letting us be a small part of the build. Heck I kind of feel like your a friend. Even though we never got to meet. Thanks for that blessing brother. Hopefully one day I can shake your hand. God bless brother
Christmas in October with that unwrap. Almost sick how great that look! Love the Bandido c/s. Thanks for posting. Crazy how fast my is coming together.
Nothing more satisfying than pulling off the masking paper and tape! You are almost done! On a T-Craft I painted, the side strips had to be "crooked"/not straight, to LOOK straight. Straight looked wrong, kind of an optical delusion.
Wow, that is coming together nicely and looks great! It is truly baffling to me, the layering and masking off of the lines, and how it all works. I haven’t settled on “strato-bound“ yet. Maybe “Ascension“? Idk but either way, I think I’m capping myself at a non-stratosphere FL250.🤪
I have been debating painting my S-21 in pieces or assembled. The biggest drawback I see to painting in pieces is the trim pieces around the wings when they are installed. Are you planning to paint just those pieces once they are riveted in place after wing installation?
@@CLEAREDDIRECT I was debating that or just not paint that top trim piece until after it is riveted and then mask of everything and spray those two parts rivets and all. Not sure how easy it will be to brush all of those rivets without having it be too noticeable.
What paint is that? Typically there is a short time limit from touch dry and masking to clear. Miss the window and the clear doesn’t bond right. I’d love to find something with more work time.
I had tried to lay down GT stripes on a Merc Cyclone... I had rolls of tape and hours of fail.... I finally decided to try a laser leveler... WORKED like a champ... Trying to make a straight tape line on a not flat surface? yea not happening with my skills......

Wow. Awesome paint scheme! Amazing attention to detail in the conception, design, and execution. "Back Country Bogie" is about to spring forth!
Quite the paint job! Pretty intricate too.
Very impressive paint work and pleasing to look at.
Outstanding! Looks better than the drawings! The mountains are a fantastic touch that most wont realize what they are looking at, so cool.
Looking great Steve. A very elegant and gorgeous paint job!

Looks awesome Steve, beautiful bird
The clear coat takes it to the next level! And who doesn't want to be nicknamed Bogey?
I’ll give the fighter pilot definition of bogey soon. May kill the vibe haha. Thanks for watching

You are creating a really, really nice plane! Good Work!
You are going to have 40 lbs of paint on that airplane!
Worth it
Great milestone! Looking forward to seeing it done and all the new content you're going to bring with BcB.
Steve the plane is looking great, can't wait to see the final project!
What name are you going to give the "stasche?

I painted all the trim pieces separately. There will be one row of rivets that will need touch up paint.

I have a Rans S-7 courier and want to do something like this to it. What's something like that run..? $$
Way too much. This many coats is heavy too. I love it, but I know not everyone will love it. That’s okay. Bogey is mine 💞
Straight lines in a paint job are a royal pain in the…
That paint is Bad A$$. See ya at High SIerra!
You should have named it scrappy... :(
