Here's the entire upper section of the rocket in gray primer.
This half is an easy mask, most of the color is in the roll pattern decals.

The uppermost section is painted black, halfway between the 3" long ST-5 tube to the top of the nose cone.
This is the mask, Scotch tape at the color separation line, masking tape and white paper behind that.

With that mask complete, you start to see how the upper section will look finished.
