I am in the process of putting the stripes and decals on my Athena, finally!
Now, a question for any of the few who might know. Some of the stripes in this picture are red. Looks like one is on the lower BT just above that wrap, and the others are on the payload section. Are all the circumferential wraps red up there? It does appear the diagonally run ones are black; the lower red stripe looks to have part of the segmented black stripe overlaid onto it, but it is so hard to tell. Also, the engine tube looks to have a segmented stripe on it.
The instructions give recommended placements, but it looks like liberal interpretation is necessary with all the others.
Thanks, again, Tim, for your decal rendition. I printed a set off, and they look fabulous!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
One other note: the instructions suggest painting the NC silver. I've already painted mine white, like the pic, but might change it over to silver. What do you all think?
