I also live in the states so something u think is here would help
u can go by painters tape man it will work at sepreating areas. anything else u need .help with
Just didn’t want to use something that would hurt other layers of paint. And yea I’m new to how these newer models are cause I’ve not built a model thats not been 15 years old . Also this is the first one I’ve ever painted and ill be needing some help. Want to c what I’m working on check out my page thank u
well painters tapeis not ment to riun it also did u do a light sealer at it all..its just if u dont want to use sealer u may need to let it set for 24hrs before the tape to make sure it dosent ruin the first layer.also for a better tip its a snap kit like the airmaster .. i advice taking it appart so the color more smooth when speerated it will make things easier.
Yea after relized how hard it was I tryed but I used glue
ouch..ahm.. ull need alot of tap and paectne man.
I’ve learned so many things working on this kit. Not to mention finding hlj who showed me there was more then just hg in the world i really didn’t know bout pg rg mg till this year sad for sure.
pg and mg have been around scine the 1990ish i think rg are the newest scale that has come out and i like it detail of an mg in a small cheaper kit. its great u can private message me if u want to talk more.
I’ve found that the Tamiya brand masking tape works very well for airbrush paint use.
My hobby store only has thin that’s what I use on small section
I just got a roll of the thin 6mm one, and it worked great, even on some very fine detail set ions.
I have to agree! Done some research on various sites and everyone seems to recommend Tamiya tapes. So I bought one. Been using it for masking for nearly a year, a lot better results than the regular painting masking tape.
You may consider using rubber mask for larger areas – Humbrol and Mr.Hobby do one. Use your tape to outline the area and fill in with the liquid mask, saves tape too.
