:th: Nothing like moving the goal posts in extra time to give yourself a challenge!
Heres hoping i haven't bitten off more than i can chew though :scratch::

Go for it
I have been seeing some cool displays with a blurred base that make the jet look like it is tearing along or taking off at full tick.

Today I got to spray the underside ram panels while waiting for my partner to finish getting ready

And started to mask the topside ram panels...... OMG I'm starting to think it would have been easier to spray the whole model a single colour and then pick the ram panels out with a hairy stick :crazy: :wall: :think:

Progress So far
