Semroc Defender Build Part 13 Painting The Fin Can




I had started spraying primer and noticed there was no launch lug!

It was glued next to a larger fin and filleted with the Titebond M & TG.





This fin can assembly will be painted off the model, slid on and glued afterwards.

I didn't have anything of a larger diameter to make a painting wand, so masking tape was wrapped around a casing, sticky side out
This was pressed inside the fin can wall.




Masking tape was set over the body tube edges and up under the larger fin root edge extensions.

It'll be important to keep the paint off all gluing surfaces.
