RLM 81 is on. I had some paint lifting in some spots whenI pull off the tape. 
Should be an easy fix.
I have some minor RLM 76 (unrelated to paint lifting) to apply on tail rudder and other spots before I post any pics.

Somebody has definitely got everything flowing. You've been a machine for the last few months

LOL… thank you. My mojo for building aircrafts has been off the charts this year. My mojo for building car kits is non-existent this year.

I missed seeing you start this. This is not a variant I am familiar with either. Super cool, looking good.

That's why I grabbed this odd variant. 
Odd, yet cool looking.

Looking at the box cover, I’m going to add a few camo spots the paint illustration guide doesn’t show. Once it’s all done, I think you’ll like it. I know I will. Of course the tail rudder camo still needs to be addressed. Thank God, I bought the camo stencil from AK Interactive.

Camo.is done. Clearcoat next for decal.session.
Tail rudder camo. Not exactly as shown in guide but good enough for me. Used the stencil template for the first time. I know I need to master it a bit more to get it right.
I'll need to fix these blobs a bit. Oh well...
