Stearman A75 Aircraft

The beginnings of the wiring harness, using a brass circlip and some fine copper wire stripped from electrical wiring, soldered together over a paper pattern.
 I made 7 long wires and taped them down over the ring and soldered them, then cut the center portions to leave 14 wires.  Some nice moldings for
the engine.  The blue paint is drying on the appropriate parts, the blue used on trainers is a bit of a mystery to me, 25095 is supposed to be the
correct color, and that is close to the dark blue Testors 1111 in the little square bottles.  But, that looks much too dark to me, so I put quite a bit of
white in it to lighten it up to look more like my photograph of 39WR.  I suspect a lot of post war Stearmans are painted a lighter blue cause it is prettier.
