Revell Razor Crest

[denders]

I've been working on a Revell Razor Crest. When I used the decals in the cockpit, they seemed a bit thick and I eventually had to pull out a very old bottle of Solvaset and use a 1/4" flat brush to push them down into the details. Therefore, I was concerned about using the kit decals for the yellow stripes on the outside.

 

 

So I decided to make masks for painting the yellow stripes. I'm sure it'll be challenging to get them in place correctly. This is a screen capture from the Silhouette Studio software. I think it's the largest single piece of masking material that I've used. I'll weed out what I don't need but it'll be a couple days 'til I try them. It's raining so I can't paint and I don't want to have them sitting around stuck to the model for a while.

 

 

It should be interesting.

Looking forward to seeing the results, Dave!

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.

Masked up the remaining pieces and painted.

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

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

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