Left side after second coat of paint, which was done using a technique similar to sponge painting after masking the appropriate hood doors. I used a piece of packing foam to dab small amounts of paint on, keeping a close eye on prototype photos to determine how much of the lettering should remain visible. The paint here was a mix of one part Floquil Light Green and about four parts UP Armour Yellow.
