Good to see this progressing despite the challenges. Quote from: RAGIII on September 01, 2023, 06:35:22 AM I then used some of Bobs Strippers over the white base coat to simulate the rib tapes. Once the first coat of My Tamiya PC 10 mix was sprayed, I removed the strippers and sprayed another coat of PC10. I really like your approach to this. I personally like subtle treatment of rib tapes in 1/32, as most of the moulded tapes are overscale and IMO don't need heavy preshading. On PC10/12, you can see a subtle shift in the lighting on the tapes on real aircraft and what you have done here really emulates that very well IMO.I was unaware of Bob's "strippers" (and I had to google that very carefully) and these look like very useful things to have. The semitransparent nature is helpful in masking rib tapes - I found that challenging on the Scout build using Tamiya tape.

I'm curious - do you have a link to 'Bob's Strippers'?
