Dave Williams Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 If some enterprising decal company would just make a decal of all the light colored RAM areas on the F-35. Not only would that avoid all the masking, but also allow people to sand down the overscale panels on the Italeri kit and not have to worry about keeping some remnant to assist in masking. Just sand it smooth, paint the dark gray, lay down the decal, call it done. RNoAF, Tomcatfreak, reconspit and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn M Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 laser cut vinyl would accomplish this and a more scale thickness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mydesign Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 (edited) yep, very good idea. It took me days to mask my 1/32 scale F-35 model all those panellines and edges on doors. Over 30 feet of tape! Progress has been slow on my model but coming week I will continue with decalling.

MarioS Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 When and had a look at your website, great build you got going there plus it's nice to see the model taking shape. Italeri has done a great job on it by the looks of it. BTW Nice masking and yes, very good idea about the decal sheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
