Scale 50% Dalotel 165

HEY!..GET OUTTA MY TREE!
Yes....unless it's a very good photo it is hard to tell. The first time I saw an Extra 330SC up close and personal was when I realized that the lower fuse from the cockpit back was fabric covered. Until then I had assumed they were aluminum panels.

Of the tons of photos I have of this plane, including many of my own, only a few really show the tape. Little details for sure....but very scale.

I'm adding them on my Krill fuselage prior to painting.

I'm glad you brought it up . I'm just about finished covering the fuselage then I will put the tape on, , ya it looks so much better

Bonjour Roger,

Ray Ordorica a réussit à restaurer le Dalotel Original ou le projet de restauration est en attente ?
Bonne courage pour entoiler ton Dalotel à toi :)

Put the tapes on after the first coat of Poly-Brush is on the piece (fuselage, wing, etc.) and apply them using Poly-Brush, not Poly-Tac.
