Thanks Leon, here's an update fella's. Per Doogs excellent info, I removed the liner from the masks  And placed them in position, also added some overspray protection.  then we got a little light grey  and last but not least some darker grey on the landing gear.   ACW Gents |

Masking for that scale?!?!? Crazy!!! Hope you didn't have too much fun dealing with those maskings?

It wasn't really that bad Andy. The hardest part was making sure I didn't pull the masks off with the liner. Thanks Dude. |

Todd, Home, the happy Wanderer I see Thanks Man. Dupes, is it raining as hard there as it is here?  Not sure if I'll try a fix or not. Every time I try it, it seems to get worse. Andy, The camo may be fat but it ain't big Brotha |

Good morning Lads, I've managed to get a little more done on the Micro Mig. Not much, I know but it's something at least. Landing gear bays and doors painted  Man, that tail section is aweful   Landing gear dressed up  And that's that. ACW |

Yesterday was the first good day we've had in a long time, so I took advantage of it. Top sides of the landing gear doors done.  Swoosh, boomy things ready to go  Landing gear in place   Center tank/ rocket ? In place   Hopefully will be able to get the rest of the whiz bang stuff on today and then some gloss ACW |
