You seem to be busy! I'm envious with the kits you have. They are all on my wish list. I love this shelby cobra. Didn't the kit come with the decals for the stripes?

Ya it came with them but I'd rather mask and paint them. But..... I think I'm going to go with the picture posted... It's amazing.

I have to have a lot to keep my interest. Il work on one and then another and another. Simultaneously. Now I want to start my R35 Gtr bug I don't really like the aoshima models. I like Tamiya

Hi that looks like a great kit, I was given a tip to stop the ridges you get when you remove the masking tape if you stick blue tack along the edge of the masking tape so it just goes over the edge of it, it will stop the ridges, I have tried it on camo and it works, not sure about straight lines though.

I am going to build the stripe first then sand all together with topcoat, mask again, mist a final coat on and then the clear.

Plus I have no idea what blue tack is.

Blue tack comes in a flat packet looks a lot like plasticine you use it for sticking up photos and stuff.
