    Progress!!!! First, I finally figured out a method that worked to strip the adhesive fairly quickly, so I am in the middle of that...first I take up what I can with a piece of packing tape, then rub the leftover with a q-tip with "what-EVER!" cleaner (no joke, that is what it is called) on it. Wipe with a papertowel (or the dry end of the q-tip), let sit and then re-tape off the leftover. Yeah, alot of steps, but it seems to be working great and the paint doesn't seem to be bothered at all. Here's what she looks like with a full paint job in the middle of removing the leftover adhesive...



    Also painted some of the "camo" on the masts and detailed the ESM mast a little...




    Mojo back? Maybe? We'll see if I can keep pushing through.

    Cheers,

    Dave

      So I did actually finish this build. I'll post some of the finished pictures shortly.
