The colors used for this model is Fevicryl "Acrylic". I used brush to paint this model. Before i start painting i drew the design scheme on the model with a marker & then started the paint process, see the model before painting you will see the markings on it. The time consuming part is painting chex.. but in the end the model looks great with the chex

Once you have the markings done on the model the paint job becomes very easy. I have a spray pen will use it on the next models i will build... I have many different crazy looking paint schemes in my mind. Hope this helps. ;D

Indeed a neat job done. !!!  :thumbsup:

Thanks for the information. Did you use the masking tape for the chex ?
Cheers !!!

Thanks..

No masking tapes used for the chex. I first paint the yellow & later the black using the guide lines drawn before paint but requires patience for this job

Thanks & yes right you need a steady hand for this job a mistake will ruin the look.

some time back i used to fly at Mahalakshmi but thats far & to fly a foamy all you need is a park. We have a ground near by my place at Andheri were i mostly fly.

I am waiting for the servos to come... once i get it i will test fly the model.

There is a small ground near Lokhandwala were i fly, not a big ground but i can fly a foamy there, sorry but outsiders are not allowed its a society play ground.  There are hardly any fields left to fly a rc planes

Hi Ankur,

You know what... I cross this ground every time I go to Airoli. This is on Mahakali Caves Road which is just behind my house. (Maybe a 5 min drive) Last time, while coming back after flying, I was wondering if I could get a sneek peak into this ground. Now I know where you guys fly. Also, both of you are invited to my place to check out my hanger anytime. It would be great to have such a field soo close by. :) I am glad to see this.

Cheers !!!
