      Camo masks seem well worth investing in, great result and must save loads of time :thinking:

      Geoff.
      Thanks Geoff,the masks are definitely a good investment IMHO,and they don't actually cost much:thumb2:

        You can see the white "powdery" stuff that appeared around the decal,this happened with ALL of them,(I only used my usual Micro Sol and Set method),some of it came off with a gentle rub with a damp cotton bud, but some didn't?!!:thinking:
        Anyway....

        Taped up the gun ports,hand painted Red,and then addressed the decal issue and some overspray areas,then sprayed with semi gloss varnish,in readiness for a Flory wash.....

        Obviously it still needs some tweaking,the wash,and knock offable bits added,but it definitely is getting there :tongue-out2:.

            Good recovery on those decals Andy. I have never seen that before and I use the same decal solutions. Looking good so far.
