The rule of auto painting, or any shapes having corners and contours, is to do these corners and contours first, the the flats. What you're trying to do is not load up the paint in there. If you paint the flats first, then the corners you build up too much paint trying to get in these difficult places and then you get the dreaded runs! No One wants the runs!!!!

I think it was the scale probably in trying to do the demacation line on the front of the float pylon's between the green and the grey on the inside.I got it pretty close but took two or three efforts before I was satisfied.

can be frustrating sometimes...but you got there in the end!

Correct mate! Corners, wheel wells, between doors etc., etc..

Beautiful work as always Wayne!

With all, great work Wayne (though I'm also not a fan of decal seat belts! )

 

[Wurger]

I echo the post above.

Thanks for your comments guys....

Great stuff Wayne. Boy, those decal seat belts are kicking up a stir (done expertly too even if not to everyone's taste).
