Back in my 'old fleet' days, I wouldn't have bothered with this detail. Back then, it was all about getting the bird out to the launch pad ASAP, without spending a great deal of time with the craftsmanship aspect of the build.
Nowadays, in my curmudgeonly, grumpy, perfectionistic old-fart BAR years, these details do not go overlooked!
Next is a couple of brushed-on coats of gloss black enamel to the glider nose cones.
I'm not worried at all about weight here, since I am going to have to add more to the nose cone bases anyway for glide trimming.
Next up- the good stuff - masking and shooting the base color coats.
Cheers.
