Your kit has the markings for <58 as a decal option so there's that. You could probably do something with that... maybe a highly diluted coat of RLM76 over it? My Ta152H had painted over markings too. I used a mask lifted off the model surface with Blu Tack blobs to get the effect.

You could xerox the decal sheet, cut out rough masks for the <58 and use them as paint masks.

Are them belts PE or HGW? They look amazing
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

“Frustrating” is when they don’t work out. These belts were”challenging”… in the long run, you got them done and they look great! :shoutout:

Belts look great Kenny. PE belts are the most difficult to lay down and I think you did a great job to introduce some bends and not leave them dead straight.
