Well, I have put a lot of time into planning. I only spent about 2 hours applying the mask, and about 1 hour cutting it. I used a marker to draw the designs on the outside, and I have at least 10 hours in it. Always erasing, redrawing, erasing, redrawing, erasing. redrawing until it looks just right.

I did paint the orange today, and tomorrow I will spray the silver and black. I hope to get the window trim done too, but that process takes about 3 hours.


Here's what my other bodies look like:
