Hi Michael,
   
  When I made my Spinne I used black oil paint straight from the tube. The flying surfaces were made of 10 thou styrene; I just rubbed the oil paint on and let it dry about a day then rubbed it off using cotton buds. It gave the surfaces a varigated off white appearance. I finished it off with a coat of matt varnish althought today I would recomend Klear/Future. See my picture sight again.
   
  Cheers,
   
  Joel

  My just about on-topic Fokker Spinne is up to the flying surface painting 
stage. Yes, it's linen. But do people think it should be cream-colored or 
simply white? As I mentioned, the museum replica of a Wright Bros. 
aeroplane is white.

Ideas anyone?

Michael
