Nice Wayne. Do you precut the tape or cut it once stuck down?

Click to expand...

I usually precut and layer sections onto each area, usually rectangular for the most part or triangular pieces that are measured to fit, then again layer additional pieces cut to shape to fill in the remainder....

Thanks Guys!!

Almost ready to paint!

Thanks Wayne. I may try that approach as I've been cutting in place, sometimes leaving a little scratch.

That's the one thing I fear doing, scratching or cutting in the wrong place, so I control the tempo, prefer the easy way of precut masks but they are not always available so you must be able to adapt to the situation, takes a little longer but the result is worth the effort.

Looking good Wayne, but I have a question. Why the gloss coat if there's no decals? Just to keep it consistent with the rest of the aircraft?

Looks like it's all getting close to the end. Is there much more to do Wayne, apart from the rear canopy, bombs and small fiddly bits ?

Not much, will post a pic later of the remaining bits...the fiddly stuff is always last to go on once all the primary stuff is finished...you know the drill, I'm sure!!
