Gliders > Scale
1/3 scale Ka3
Fred:
Painting on the way !
Happy with the roller technic :D .. Much less with the paint !! :evil: :!: :!:
Used Crown paint, the cheapest I can find for all my other gliders, and each time, I had a perfect finish !
For this one, I bought Crown paint still, but at least 3 or 4 time the price I used to pay... Thinking this glider worth it...
Worst paint ever !!
My advice (a bit too late for me...)..Stick to the cheapest paint you can find ! They work perfect !
Ah well.. 1 meter away should be invisible... :roll:

Fred, think about the fact that our gliders are just to perfect comparing to the big ones, so some faults are just right. And the big advantage, if somebody is making any remark about your finsh, just tell him that the big one was the same, its just scale :D

Fred:
:lol:
Well, that is true !
Seeing the state of some full size glider, sometimes, well, most of the time, ours are really neet compare to the ones we try to reproduce !
I'll give another go with another layer of paint, and we'll see tomorrow... Otherwise, as Vincent said, I'll buy another type of paint and give it a go.

Hi guys,
Thanks to today's weather and Anthony, here are tonight's photos of the Ka3 !
99.9% done, the rest is just cosmetic (pitot tube on the nose and gluing the pilt's seat with the harness).
Looks good.. 2 meters away ! :oops: still not happy with the paint job ! :!: :!:
Can't wait for the next flying session ! :D
Stephan:
Great job Fred, hope your Ka3 gets a pilot :?: it would be a pity if not :cry:
