There's a really good build of that kit (test shot, I believe) on LSP: https://forum.largescaleplanes.com/index.php?/topic/100173-north-american-f-86-a-5-sabre-148-clear-prop-models/ Kev

Welcome aboard, Jean! You could try superimposing the mask designs over your original scans, and making them match up. Not sure if that's actually possible in practise, but just an idea that popped into my head. Kev

Wow, that's annoying! If I were you, I'd take this issue directly to Silhouette, as this seems like a failure of the machine to perform properly. I think some tech support might be in order here. Kev

I meant to report back on this ages ago, but one of the updates released since I made this post fixed the issue, and subsequent versions of Silhouette Studio have all been fine - not that I've really had any time to test them! I've just (finally) upgraded from the Basic (free) edition to Business Edition, so being much more productive at the workbench so far this year (4 completions already), I'm hoping to be able to use the Silhouette solution for my projects more often. Kev

Yep, just upgraded from Basic to Business myself. Total cost was about AU$76, and I had a bit of trouble with the payment process, so Silhouette support helped me out nicely there. Now I just have to find the time to use it! Kev

That looks great, Dave! Kev

Thanks for posting these, Dave! Kev

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

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

Looking forward to seeing the results, Dave! Kev

Welcome aboard, sir! Kev

Probably, and probably not. Kev

Just a test post after yet another software update. Kev

That reminds me of the vinyl that Montex uses in its sets, where I've had similar issues. That's a bit surprising from a paper-based tape, though. Kev

Great results, Dave! Thanks for running these tests for us. Still on the look out myself. Kev

It's a good question. I can't even find the Tamiya sheets here in Australia! Kev

Welcome aboard! Kev

Hi Denis, you should be good to go now. Kev

Welcome aboard, Denis! Great to see you here. Kev

And again! Kev

Welcome aboard, sir! Kev

Welcome aboard, Steve! Kev

Welcome aboard, Butch! That's some really impressive work there. Kev

I'm pretty sure it's just a once-only cost, and not an annual license. Kev
