Shawn M Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 looks nice, bummer about the mis-aslign, should be an easy fix with masks though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozart Posted February 8, 2016 Author Share Posted February 8, 2016 Easy fix agreed Shawn but a time consuming one and one that shouldn't have been necessary if I'd paid a little more attention when masking yesterday. Anyway, it's fixed now and the fuselage roundels completed, just the tail fin to go before I consider serial numbers and a code letter.

Shawn M Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 I had a masking issue as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozart Posted February 8, 2016 Author Share Posted February 8, 2016 Underwing roundel sorted, fuselage ones OK: A little touching up necessary underneath the starboard side of the cockpit then it's the undercart, flaps and prop towards the finish line.....

mozart Posted February 9, 2016 Author Share Posted February 9, 2016 Thanks chaps, yes I'm pleased with the Montex masks inspite of my earlier scepticism. I'm going to use a scrap of spare vinyl to do the letter (L cos it's easy!) today then think about the serial numbers, stencil or decals.

mozart Posted February 9, 2016 Author Share Posted February 9, 2016 A productive afternoon with the tail-end! I was going through some of my used Miracle masks from my Harvard and found an unused "E" (never throw anything away!!) so E she is, though I only had the one so the mask had to be carefully removed before being "re-cycled". The stripes on the tail was just a question of masking tape re-positioned on a white base. I've also been experimenting with cutting the serial P8177 and her name "NORTH BORNEO II" on the Silhouette cutter, I think once I've got the right vinyl sheet (my current stuff is too thick and sticky) the serial's certainly going to be OK and possibly the name with a bit of fiddling.
