Estes Python 4 Build, Part 12, Upper Section Mask


The top section is actually an easy mask. Gray paint goes from the middle body separation up to the nose cone. The upper fins are left white.
The rear of the fins are square, the tops are even with the top of the body tube.

A long strip of Scotch tape was set around the root edges of all four upper fins.

Masking a (somewhat) wide fillet of Titebond M&TG takes a few extra moments.
I try to set the tape line down the center of the fillet.



After the gray paint was sprayed the tape was lifted.
This was one of the better recent masks. The lines are clean and sharp.
