Tip: |
Create an airbrush mask that you can shape to surface contours by applying masking tape to one side of a piece of heavy duty aluminum foil, then cut various shapes into the sheet to match the patterns you want to paint. Cut rectangles and squares for hull panel shapes, and curved, wavey shapes for camo schemes. |
