Ranger Clone Build Part 22 Nose Cone Paint

You've gotta' love a simple mask - the nose cone is red.
There's a few things you can do to sharpen up the black and red color separation line.

Mask off the nose cone shoulder just below the stepped lip. You'll be spraying the red a little below the raised lip.
When done this way, if the nose cone is a little out of the tube all you'll see is the red, not a little white edge above the joint.




While the red nose cone is drying,
Blacken the body tube edge with a permanent marker. Go quick, it won't take much.






Before inserting the nose cone, wipe off any excess black with a paper towel.
Keep wiping the edge until no more black comes off.

This will prevent the black ink from transferring onto the shoulder lip of the nose cone.




The finished nose cone and payload section.
The body tube and nose cone color separations are very clean.
