Two balsa pieces were cut to the width of the tab openings on the top of the wing engines. This gave me something to hold onto while spray painting.
The engine mount centering rings were masked and a dowel slid in for a painting handle.
I learned from another forum build by Scigs30 to paint the engines before gluing them onto the wing extensions.
Instead of just black, I used Rusto Metallic Black for a little extra shine.
UPGRADE: To add a little more detail, I cut some small squares of aluminum Monokote trim. These were stuck into the front end of the engines.
