I've neglectful in updating, sorry. As most common view of a mustang is inner gear door up when on the ground, I elected to do that. The doors are a bit too large to be closed so it took so filing to get them to fit.
Yes that is one thing, but it is also quite accurate to have them closed, the gear well on this kit is pretty good but could still use the tubing for hydraulics and electrical, I've never gotten to that, I should but….
Well paint must go on eh....
Bottom is light grey (USAF Camouflage Grey)
Top started with the dark sea grey
I tried "silly putty" (note the blue egg) for demarcation lines, it seems to act much like the AK Camouflage elastic putty, but not quite as bad) a bit thicker and doesn't run as much, though still does.
Than the dark green
After a drying period I'll take off the putty and re do as needed the dark sea grey and clean up any opp's I have (always seems to be some).
Good stuff Don. I can't get that to stick to the model; same as blue tack. I've read that Silly Putty® might stain the paint. Awaiting the end of the drying period
Thanks' Karl and Geo, Geo I didn't note any staining but I am using acrylics and though some of the putty did sit over night (wife had a flat tire and that's a story for another time), the acrylics are fast drying so the putty is only down for say fifteen to thirty minutes. I've overstated the obvious and pointed out when I need to re-mask and lay down more grey or green as needed.
Working on getting some mojo back in the build. here's an update...
some issues (self induced) on the paint but I think its under control now.
prop and spinner cover. fighting with airbrushes (self induced)
Have to clean up the spinner.
