that stuff is the best i have tried, worth the money if you can find it.I use the same method Don but prefer the Perfect Plastic Putty and if detail is close by, will also mask like Evan suggests.
Have to have a much younger eyes and body to do 72, 48 is getting that was and 32 is just about right!Wrong scale. Everyone knows that 1:72 is the proper scale. 1:48 is gauche. 1:32 is obscene. Anything of a larger scale should actually be able to fly and ideally, carry a person. Otherwise, it's a plastic orgy.
I feel your pain.Have to have a much younger eyes and body to do 72, 48 is getting that was and 32 is just about right!
yes indeed, I find it very difficult to transfer the camo pattern from the trumpeter paint guide onto the model. looking at the guide I am not able to view the continuation between the port and starboard camo pattern, there are areas that are not viewable or am being irrational? Very hesitant to take on this type of camo again. seems that Trumpeter guide is not very good. I appreciate your input, just what i am looking for to improve my skill. how would you handle the camo on this particular model?I'm with all above. Looking good. But If I may ... the Hawks of the AVG were camouflaged with the RAF type scheme. It resulted in keeping of the continuation of the camo spots from the port side and the starboard of a plane. The way of the camo applying was kept for the wing tops as well. It means that the camo spots that started at the port side were continued at the starboard with the same direction mostly. Unfortunately there is a kind of misalignment at the fuselage top between the cockpit and the fin.
Anyway ,

as you can see here I made stencils from the resized paint guide. the wings were easy and the fuselage was not. How did you adhere the paper stencil to the wing root area? made cuts to paper then taped over that? your photo pretty much solves my question. View attachment 749608
