Tolga ULGUR Posted June 20, 2023 Author Share Posted June 20, 2023 The canopy mask finally arrived. I continue where I left off Windscreen installed. Pointlessly, there's some space in the joining line. It took some time to fix this. It is now ready to be painted. scvrobeson, TankBuster, denders and 14 others 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HB252 Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Hi Tolga! Great Paint job!! I think you use "paper" templates for separate the 2 colors ( like in the Hurry) Muy question is: how do you do for get the ruond shape? Do you cut the template whit scissors or whit a "cutter"? Because, for me, its difficult cut the templates whit a soft ruond like you do Tolga ULGUR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use paper mask for upper wing two colors camouflage and cut them whit scissors. For soft demarcation, the paper mask should be approx 1 mm above the surface.
