    Excellent paintwork, Spiros @fiveten
    Any specific reason why you will mount the horizontal stabilizer at a later stage.

    Thanks my friend @johnb!
    The rudder has to be painted with the french tri-color band, with the horizontal stabilizer partially covering it, so I left it off to paint the band first.

    Thanks my friend @johnb! The gray was hand painted, so no overspray worries!

    Looks awesome, Spiros (@fiveten). The natural metal looks the part. The horizontal stabilizers look like they have no positive attachment slots, so it should be fun. Good luck.

    Thanks my friend @gblair! Yes, securing the horizontal stabilizers will be challenging...

    Is there any specific reason, you know of, why they decided to paint it like this, I cannot imagine it was for camouflage purpose.
