MPC Taurus - 1 Build Part 8 Undercoat Paint Mask

The "booster tubes" will be painted separately and glued on afterwards.
A thin line of masking tape was set down just short of the top of the booster tube length.

The model was set down a 1/2" dowel for a painting wand.
The entire model got a coat of white.

The face card shows the body in silver.
Black and white fins would look good against the silver body tube. But masking tape over any silver (or aluminum) paint could discolor the silver. On to Plan 2.
