Exactly Gene, that’s precisely what I would do. No harder than doing the national markings.

Are you referring to the 284? If so, I could manually trace those for you. Silhouette Studio? Gene K

Sorry, I’m not quite sure what your question is here? Can you explain a little more please.

Starting this kit and was hoping to make masks. The roundels are easy but the fat lettering for the SN is a new one! Anyone had a go...? https://spruebrothers.com/lnrl3202-1-32-great-wall-hobby-curtiss-p-40b-warhawk-pearl-harbor-/

Thanks for these. Recently used several of them for my Fw190A-8.

That looks great, Dave! Kev

Oh yeah, finished model.

Thanks for posting these, Dave! Kev

Just as a quick update on this model, it's now left my collection, and has a new home in the Bentwaters Cold War Museum. This is a small but excellent museum, run by what is clearly an enthusiastic and committed bunch of volunteers, who include a number of modellers who are also part of the local IPMS branch. Thoroughly recommended if you're ever in that part of England.

Kev, they're uploaded. There's a extra topic to remove because I forgot how to upload files. Dave

Revell Razer Crest Yellow Stripes Mask (studio3) View File I found the decals hard to work with while working on the cockpit, so I created a set of masks for the yellow stripes. Note, I sort of 'cheated' and created them so I wouldn't have to deal with transfer tape. You can add smaller scrape areas by making additions to the masks or perhaps some paint on masking.

Thanks. I don't need this mask, but I always enjoy viewing a good set! Gene K P.S. You may want to consider posting a thumbnail of the mask along with your posts/files.

Awesome! I know I could use them, at the very least. Kev

Hi Kev, yes, I will.

Dora Wings Vega Gull G-AFBW 48 scale.studio3 View File One of the options in the excellent Dora Wings Vega Gull. The decals in the kit look quite good but I thought the white might be a little transparent so I ran up this mask. Enjoy John Submitter Mostly 48th Submitted 03/25/2024 Category Aircraft - Civil  

That looks great, Dave! Can I convince you to upload the cut files when you're done? Kev

Masked up the remaining pieces and painted.

Yes to what snigel said! There are good tutorials here on this site. A quick demo: I'm also interested in your laser cutter set up. Can you cut balsa with it? Gene K

Yep, welcome indeed mon ami. I hope you enjoy your Silhouette machine and find lots of useful information on our site.

Thanks Kev. When I weeded out all the unnecessary bits, I realized there's a mistake there. This is the final after a recut. First mask piece in place. Paint on. Masks off. I like it. Just 4 more mask pieces to go.

Looking forward to seeing the results, Dave! Kev
