Thank you John, John, Gary, Tom and Bruce!

When this moment starts, then it's not long time until some major paintwork can start

Using Montex canopy masks, as earlier said, not really my favorite ones, but these went on nevertheless rather smoothly.

Very nice and crispy clear canopy glass. On top of that the glass is very thin.

Kari, you are the Bench Master! What is that acrylic stand with a black base? I wonder if I can use it for WWI models? It is a beautiful base. And frankly, your Brewster is gorgeous. And your work is a joy to watch.

I’ve used Montex mask once. Very thick to apply but it does do the job. I prefer thin masks like Eduard.

I don't mind Montex masks. You have to be careful not to stretch them.
Thanks,
John

Thanks Bruce!

I bought the stand more than 10 years ago, I believe it is/was Trumpeters (?), it’s indeed very simple but so handy.

You can turn the sides in 4 different positions, to match what ever you put on it. I have put a piece of sprue through the holes, as an extra support for the Brewster.
