Oh what did we do before pre-cut masks?

Tamiya tape, a sharp #11 blade and good light!

I used good old masking tape back then….

And that’s what I still do…

I normally don't need masks but the Skyhawks canopy is really small.

I can't start a kit without them

Try one in 72nd scale

Try one on a 1/72 scale aircraft that has a greenhouse canopy. Dauntless, Rufe, He-111, Helldiver, Devastator, etc…

Nope!!!

Finished up the ejection seat.

While I wait for parts or time to prime/paint, I went back to something that I can work on (yes I know I'm all over the place with my builds). After Magic Factory released their A-4M and the black and white jet is one of the options, I've seen it everywhere now. So I decided to change the jet I'm doing. One of the problems with that is the gun covers and a different tail tip. I was able to change them pretty easily.

Nice! That looks to be on very well detailed kit
