Just struck me! Where is the rest of the tape? Surely this is not all?? If so, then how do you keep the belly clean when you paint the leading (and trailing) wing edges????

Karl uses a brush IIRC. So there is no need to mask all surfaces around.

Those are brush painted?? Not sure what IIRC is but I'll assume brush? Certainly has that skill down!

Yes Ralph, dont use an airbrush, i tried one and didn't like it.
I use Vallejo model colour paints and paint brushes.
