K,
   Your paint job looks great!  That color combo hurts my eyes, but it looks spot on.

Eric,
      That's brilliant, and sophisticated to boot! ;)

Your paint job looks great.  Boy, they sure had a different view regarding camouflage and visibility back then!

It looks fantastic now that the fuselage camo has also been added, quite a spectacular scheme.

Thanks Eric for your tip on rolling the putty.

Terri, 
While I don't know what brand K used, I've tried several different types and by far the best is genuine Bostik Blu-Tack.  I get it through Amazon as I can't find it in stores (in the U.S.)

For what it is worth there is a cheap alternative available at a lot of retail stores. Silly Putty works well for this purpose as long as you don't leave it on too long after masking. It tends to flatten as time goes by.
