Thanks my friend @airbum!
It was tough to keep QC/2's hands away from that red...
It's a mystery how the red survived intact...

Yep! Red it is!
Next the blue and last the white, to break every painting rule!

The fine art of having the day off...

What a nice opportunity to apply the French Blue at my Alpha Jet!

As per my usual goofing, I had forgotten to mask the fin red part (I wonder what I was thinking...), discovering it in horror AFTER starting to apply the blue...

Thank goodness, just an unnoticeable mist of blue sent over the port side of the fin...

I aplied BDR (Battle Damage Repair) techniques, in order to mask the fin, without touching the fuselage underside already sprayed blue...

All went well, so painting continued.

Here are the results:

The Alpha Jet sports two very characteristic aerodynamic actuator covers under each wing.

The problem is that this model is probably going to be displayed on its base at my friend's living room, or his office at home, or at a similar place. His friends will for sure like to have a look and they might occasionally touch it. Also it will occasinally have to be dusted off. All these are negative factors for the fragile aerocovers above.

So, since my friend lives in France and I live in Greece (meaning it would be difficult to provide "on site" service), I decided to leave them off.

More to come!

I see red AND blue. Now where did we see that recently. . - Oh well, no matter, the QC/2 seems like he's a happy camper. Nice fast progress, and glad your BDR turned out OK.

Wow, looking good Spiros.
Nice choice of kits - I think I've seen this kit somewhere before ...but yours is looking way more interesting.

Yours looks amazing too, @georgeswork!

Thanks Allan @kalamazoo!
Here she is after the (quite a lot of) final masking, ii order to spray the white:

You may have done it wong Spiros but it came out all white !
