So I been flat out, like a lizard drinkin.
Painted all the gear doors and crap. well you know.
Noticed in a photo the antennae on the nose gear door had a rod, not a biggass bulky plate.
So I took care of that one too.
Also masking the 1/72nd!!!!!!!!!!!!!! canopy stuff at This scale.... ack.
We had a little workshop at an IPMS meeting about doing this....
it's a bit easier, or rather more accurate and easier.
1mm strips of tape, as in the photo. Windscreen at the top you see a dot, cut with a hole template.
Then the 1mm strips along all the edges.
Fill in the open spaces with liquid mask, or tape, and off you go.
I use a scalpel with a #15 blade, the rounded end one.
I press on the tape and rock it back and forth, backwards and forwards here in Oz.
This way I am less likely to slip and cut the glass!
Always a new sharp blade!!!!
