Thanks Q!

The tale o the tape...

This is a pic from a few days go.

Applying all these little bits of tape is the most tedious part of the build. 

I'm giving this ship a modified aztec pattern.

The pattern is random for each side but is mirrored from one side to the other:

From time to time I find little specks of dried putty under the coat of silver paint.

After removing it I have to respray the Tamiya silver.

Luckily it's lacquer so dries within minutes and I can continue masking.

As of today, I have completed the upper saucer:

Now I start on the underside.

Hopefully I'll be all done with the masking by end of next week at the rate it's going.

Pray for me...
