Re: Masking 2 tone
I use Tamiya, but I've never done anything like that, the only other thing I do is after masking i airbrush some clear around the edges, to help stop the colour running under the tape.
Or you could get some decals printed?
Good luck with it

Iuse blue painters tape, cut down with the scalpel, had mixed results, sometimes perfect and unfortunately sometimes it has blead on me, what ever you use make sure you smooth the edges with the back of your thumb nail, just to make sure it sits down properly, good luck mate, not as easy as it seems sometimes, particularly over curves.

Re: Masking 2 tone
Got a couple of those, one's still sealed, kinda' wonder if I'll ever get to build them. Have got a couple of projects in mind with the engines.
Bit difficult to rob the engines out of something that may never get re released. Time will tell I guess.
