    Quite a bit of masking, my friend @kalamazoo.
    Nice painting, too!
    Cannot see the mesed-up panel lines, all looks good from here.

    Grey touched up and the nose painted flat black, although it looks grey, a coat of Pledge should help !

    Great looking paint lines, Allan. And great idea with the plastic bag mask - I'll use that idea in the future for sure.
