Well, I won't subject you all to photos, but let's just say the squiggles look even nastier when there's a coat of paint on top!
This was after about a half dozen coats of Future, with prodigious sanding and filing in between, to the level that I'd thought I'd gotten it "pretty smooth"... ha.
I did appreciate having the opportunity to practice (such as it was, with a surface like that) putting paint on an an airplane mini, and I assume if you saw it from a good distance (say 10 feet) it would look like an Eindecker. But... yuck! It makes me really appreciate how easy it is to just get a package from Ares, tell you what!
Have some Pups and Albie D.IIIs on order, hope they turn up in better shape than this BE.2 and Eindecker.
Thanks to all of you for the input so far, it is most appreciated and helpful.
