Highside Glider almost finished - now covered
I set aside this afternoon to complete the covering of my Highside glider. As most of you know I do like bright (easy to see) colours. So you should not be amazed that I have carried on the theme with fluorescent orange and black. Take a look at the build log and see how I got on.

Yes, a suitably garish colour scheme, well done. With regard to visibility and orientation, did you consider using a contrasting colour for the underside of the wings?
ReplyDeleteHi Russell. No, I didn't to be honest. All models become a block colour (usually black)when they get a few hundred feet away especially a model of this size. So I will see how I get on. I have some transfers to put on which I had made up for the glider (which is just the glider name in black).
