Real nice spray job. It's hard to get such a nice finish well done. Chris On the bench 1/350 Revell Tirpitz Platinum Edition (Pontos PE and Wooden deck) plus extra Eduard PE set and extra MK1 door sets.

 Hi All The kit is supplied with the white stripes in decal form but as I have a dark background im thinking that the decal's may not be thick enough in colour to stay white and not show through the blue as some decals are wont to do. So the only other way to do it was to mask and spray and thats what has been done,only the central stripes and roundals at the moment as I will be adding the side roundels after the main stripes and bodywork have had a tidy up. More soon. Andy arpurchase attached the following image(s): Current builds:-C57,Zero, Lamborghini Countach, Caldercraft HMS Agamemnon,Robi,R2-D2, MFH Cobra .

That's a very nice paint job you've done there. Graham I was drowning my sorrows. But my sorrows they'd learned to swim.

Excellent job on the stripes Andy, not the easiest of masking to do as the slightest kink will really stand out in white. Very well done!

Excellent work Andy, those strips are top notch. Spraying them on was the better choice as it has given amazing results. Chris On the bench 1/350 Revell Tirpitz Platinum Edition (Pontos PE and Wooden deck) plus extra Eduard PE set and extra MK1 door sets.
