Putting done and cleaned up. shot a black lacquer over all and masked the engine exhaust and wing tips off. Wing tips are white and since I'm leaving the engine area black the primer should do. We'll see.....

Oh and Karl these are the saws we were discussing the other day.

Outter bow

streight

inward bow

and this is just a diffrent set from the same company Mad Works.

Thanks guys Let's play "can you find the airplane"

 

[fubar57]

I think I've found out why there's a world-wide masking tape shortage

 

[Donivanp]

Why? I still have more int he draw no shortage here!

[Gnomey]

Nice work so far!

 

[Donivanp]

OK the big revill How did my masking work? Short answer IT SUCKED. but it's dueable.
Had quite a bit of bleed over on the left outboard white on the top side. Already working on this.

Not so bad on the right.

I'll need clean up on the black all around the engine exhaust and down the wing. and the bottom horizontal stabs.

and bottom right wing tip.

Patience, young padawan. I have faith in you

 

[Gnomey]

Good work so far!

 

[A4K]

It's not as easy as people think getting a clean straight masked edge, atleast in my experience. I constantly have to retouch the edging.

 

[talbot]

totally agree, definitely not as easy as you initially think

 

[Wayne Little]

bit of extra work to do but good progress.

 

[Donivanp]

I have been working just not updating...

 

[fubar57]

Very nice
