All great inputs. The O2 tanks go in the section and may supply the added structural support but I'll look at adding the stripping as well.
 
Dang but this one is BIG! I had to put her down for a nap after a shower. There was a lot of seam work on this and I'm not sure about how it worked till I get some primer on it.

 
Well as promised, Monstro is getting some covering. First gallon went to the seams, (still got some work to do there), and the what was left in the color cup went where ever. I used Humbrol liquid mask for the few windows I have in.


I do have a second work bench but can't seem to find room to work on it.

 
Man....that's going to require a lot of paint. After serious consideration I have decided to sell off my multi-engine fleet, more due to lack of space than anything else. Off to the post office tomorrow to check out international shipping rates
 
Getting there Don.
Might be a good idea to mask all the turret openings etc, as metallic paints tend to produce a lot of mist overspray, which gets where smoke can't reach !
 
I intended to have turrets in place and mask off weapons bay and gear wells before I got to the metallics, but it is a good to know and remember suggestion as I seem to get things out of sequence sometimes. Thanks to all.
