The rear "peaks" have outside mask lines. The first angled tape strip is set down. Below it you can see the pencil line for the next piece.
The upper peaks are inside masks with rounded sides.
The curve was cut with small scissors. That curve on the left side almost works like a hinge, allowing you to set the tape at a few different angles until the tip meets at the top.
The top and bottom pieces are in place.
The open center is covered with brown masking tape.
I tried wrapping some grocer bag plastic around the fins but the peaks of the lower red masks were in the way.
Brown masking tape covered all the fin area.
I'm wondering if using frisket film could be an option for the masking. Basically trace out the provided pattern onto frisket film, then cut out and apply to the model. I've also used removable/repositionable label sheet (like what you can get at Staples or Office Depot) for masking as well. A light spray of base color along the edges could help to seal the edges to avoid bleed under the mask.
