Some good colours there David. |

Very good point Brian! They would have been in trouble if they had been here in that situation. |

That might not be street legal. |

The man piloting it seemed to know what he was doing and the passengers acted as if they were out for a casual ride. I have seen this balloon before flying east to west so I speculate it's a for hire deal. |

Precision piloting...or pure dumb luck:-). |

Only the anti glare panel needs to be painted to finish the top. |

DD is correct. I had problems with getting the tape to lie flat on the curves. On the P-51 I used a lot of Tamiya tape and a little of the delicate surface Frog tape. Both worked well without your problem. I was using the cheap brush on acrylics in the little plastic bottles and did the white first. In some cases I only waited a day for it to dry. |

hj, I was using Tamiya 18mm masking tape on Tamiya acrylic paint. I had hoped to eliminate any chance of product mismatches causing weird interactions. What the tape left looks like a dull residue but is not sticky. Online research has revealed that the problem is not unusual, is not residue, but is an emollient issue with chemicals evaporating from uncured paint. Paint had been dry for two weeks before the tape was applied! I have used the Multi-Surface Frog Tape with mixed results but have not tried the Delicate Surfaces type. Thanks for the tip. I will post a picture of what the tape has done to the paint. |

biplane guy, what masking tape were you using? I've discovered the Frog Tape For Delicate Surfaces. I have not had any dull spots when I removed the tape and I am brushing and airbrushing with acrylics on relatively unsupported Japanese tissue since I don't build static models. |

Don mentioned spots. I think he meant in areas of tight curves. I'm not familiar with Tamiya paints but I would suspect the paint before the tape. |
