Thanks to all fellas....

I'm busy masking, placing the cockpit correctly, covering the gap between the slats, it's very humid and the rubber mask takes a long time to dry completely.
 
thanks Wayne

Thank you, thank you, thank you, a big hug to everyone!!!!

Very nice words for this misshapen piece of brittle plastic!!!

The thing is, this pot-bellied man's belly is already that typical white of that era, which is so difficult to apply evenly without creating a cloud of paint, and my wife's subsequent words: "DON'T PAINT THAT COLOR UNTIL YOU GET THE PAINT BOOTH OUT, IT'S COMING OUT EVERYWHERE AND IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S FULL OF DUST"...
I write it in capital letters because she always yells at me, and I laugh even more and spray where she is... for opening my mouth...

The finish of this color is so shiny, really very pretty when it dries.
 
thanks boyz.

Well, following the painting steps, it's costing me to finish it due to my disorganization. The upper gray was Vallejo and it was cut, so I had to order a new one, but now from Gunze. They gave me a delivery time of 1 week, now going on 3 weeks. It's the first time I've bought from this online store and they recommended me...
So, bored by the lack of reading and painting, I took the plunge and painted all the other colors except for the gray (the first week). By the second week it was already climbing the walls, so I started looking for how to mix colors to get the gray fs16440 and I think the color was right.

Now I'm touching up the small, big paint flaws it has to seal it and start placing the decals.
