Hi All! I've ordered some Oramask 810 and looking forward to playing with it with my Silhouette cutter. I'm curious about using transfer tape to move complex designs (Enterprise Aztec masks, anyone?) from backing paper onto a model. My understanding is that the 810 is pretty low-tack, and the only transfer tape I've used up til now has been pretty strong. I've no idea how that combo would work well together. Is there a better choice than the transfer tape I've been using with Oracal 651? Thanks in advance! Chris

Hi, Have joined following a posting on Facebook. Delighted to see this forum as I'm just getting started with developing/creating masks, etc. To date I have been looking at what cutter to buy and decided on a Silhouette Cameo 4. Advice from others steered me to a Silhouette and as I would like to cut any material I saw the Cameo as the best option. Did order a machine but supplier never despatched so just sorting that out and I'll get another ordered. Following all posts with great interest. P

Hello, Here the Tarangus 1/72 SAAB JA37 Viggen, using my paint-masks. I used a Silhouette Portrait for the canopy, wheels and landing gear wheels. The splinter cammo was made using Maestro Models masking set. Painted using MRP paints.

Hello Chris. I mostly use the same as the masking material, Oramask 810 in my case, but a clear Frisket-type has advantages because you can position the mask more easily due to its clarity. Max

Ok, I thinking of adding some kind of instruction or part callout for the masks, to make it easier to apply them correctly.
