Critique my new paint scheme, please

Post by spduffee »

Boy, with a 3-year old in the house you really have to be careful where you leave your C-170 parts manual. What do you guys think of my daughter's new paint scheme? I think it has merit...

Very nice. I notice she leans towards fast GREEN, primary blue a component of GREEN. Her technique of showing the hue of red on the tip coming from the nav light on the wing tip is brilliant and advanced coloring for her age

I'd say your all set.

Although I'm more a RED guy myself, I have to say that is quite the masterpiece. :D

That red tip will have more influence over the green TRAILING EDGE and will allow the airplane to fly straight. Brilliant thinking. You have a child prodigy on your hands.
