No disrespect intended, but is it that difficult to mask canopies on your own? Yes, pre cut masks are a time saver. But having several sizes of Tamiya tape on hand is a definite short cut for those who do it themselves.Floki wrote:Good thing you got some precut masks otherwise all that would of took forever.

These actually aren’t precut, they’re just a swatch of Tamiya tape with the outlines stenciled on them and you cut along the lines. And if the kit comes with them, I’ll use them. If not, I’ll mask it myself using the Tamiya tape because as I discovered a few projects ago, masking yourself isn’t difficult at all. This kit came with masks you cut out and I used them. If it hadn’t I would’ve made them myself. Would’ve just taken a little longer.

Not really difficult if it's a 109, 190 a mustang etc. I do them myself but a Ju88 or something with a lot of small panels like this I will spend the few extra dollars and get me some masks.Stikpusher wrote:No disrespect intended, but is it that difficult to mask canopies on your own?

March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

Time passes. The wheel turns. This cockpit assembly and paint remainsas a massive leveling up moment for you, Ken. You just... hit every note; rang every bell.

Do you make house calls?
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..
