| We're constantly being told to use our credit cards whether we need or want to, or not, in order to make maximum use of "Credit Card Utilization Rate." Sooo, I decided to listen to their choir and put to use some of my credit cards. |

| Finished results. The decals snuggled down enough to help me locate the slots for the control horns. The rough edges will be touched up with pain. I was lucky. The paint matched up very good with the tones of the reds and blues. |

| Used X-Acto blade to cut through the covering prior to adding the decals. If you zoom up, you can also see the slots for the vertical hinges. |

| This is the lower left wing as I was adding the thin strips of surface tapes. I decided to avoid adding the stitching to keep my sanity for the next project. I also felt I would need some practice on my "proof of concept" wing sample and making sure that the decals conform to the complex detailing of rib stitching, surface tape, and rounded leading edges of ailerons. |
