Re: ICM 1/48 MiG-3
Thanks guys. I’m starting to get the hang of working with Silly Putty as a masking agent. I do like the results here.

I’ve used blue poster tack a few times. They’re great but the trouble with those they tend to leave behind bits when pulling them off. Shoulda used Silly Putty that I had on hand.

That's looking excellent Carlos, I really like the tonal variations on the undersides!

Some good results with that Silly Putty Carlos. That reminds me, I need to run to Walmart and pick some more of that stuff up. Mine has paint in it from overusing them. lol

Re: ICM 1/48 MiG-3
5 lb. block of Silly Putty?! But seeing that it’s sold by Crayola makes me think it’s for Marines… Probably with a big “DO NOT EAT” on the container…
I wonder how many kits could be masked at once with that much Silly Putty!

Beautiful camo! TGIF! I first saw our Duke of 1/72 use Silly Putty, now I see you put it to good use.
