Very nicely done Chris! I would have probably spent a few hours working with Evergreen strip and rod styrene to do the same thing, cutting, sanding, test fitting, repeat.... How long does it take to do a 3-D print like that?

Thanks Carlos. At my current CAD skill level, probably around one or two hours for design and an hour to print.

Very nice work on the engine mods! Must be nice to able to print those needed parts. Scratching up those tear drop distributors would be a pain.

I am is this weird stage with my modeling. I don't do things in logical steps. I am prioritizing build enjoyment ahead of final results. I just wanted to get the camo done on this jug earlier this week and did not want to mess with canopy masking. Now the camo is done and I am forced to mask the canopy...

I am getting to like this BMF masking. It's
faster and better than designing and cutting masks on a computer... especially in 1/72. Of course, it really only works well when the subject has sharp corners to the canopy frame. Would not work great trying to represent rounded corners, unless you have computer controlled hands...
