That is an interesting way to mount that pane for spraying. Nice job on the primer coat.

Finally a first coat, white because I am spraying in the traditional sequence.

Thanks. White is always difficult. I used Tamiya acrylic with Gunze self leveling Laquer thinner. Works like a charm.

And the masking has started. I hate masking, that is why I like camouflage schemes with soft edges. You can do those free hand. But an aircraft like this needs to have nice straight lines. To make thing worse, there are going to be decals next to all those masked if parts.
