OK so I have a dilemma! AM instructions call for wing insignias top and bottom both port and starboard, rather than port top and starboard bottom. I though by Midway it was the later, What say ye all?
 
OK love the new compressor tied to the Talon I'm loven' it.

I wasn't sure about the insignias till I did some searching and decided AM knew their stuff.

I painted the walkways on and then tried to remove then via scuffing!



I started by putting the insignias on as I thought they should be.

Did some research and concluded yep, don't worry I fixed that meatball! Note the tail decal. AM did a nice job on that as a light spray over the tail.

Next I'll need to put the white over the meatballs, and the same for the fuselage insignias.
 
OK dokay, well had to paint the white stripe.
I used some Testors 3mm tape to mark the mark the stripe then added the Tamiya masking tape to the back side.

All masking was run a couple times on my had to reduce tack. Using Tamiya vinyl tape for the forward mask due to the more complex curves.

Choosing my Talon for the task at hand.

As usual Vallejo Model Air.

Set the compressor with three drops of white in the cup.

And remove the mask! I know you pros taught me all these trick so just to let you know, sometimes I listen
