    Despite being an hour long that was pretty entertaining . I build a lot Dragon kits and as you say tolerances are tight and sometimes a bit of light sanding is needed. Also the 'shackle' incident has happened to me as well, just like that. Dragon parts are thinner than most other makes and even cutting from the sprue can weaken a fine part. You dont even notice and then all of a sudden its in 2 pieces. 🫣 Good luck going forward 👍

      Yes, I did spray hairspray between the yellow and green sections. ( I think I mentioned it in the video?) Thanks for commenting! It's actually a very straightforward idea, so I wouldn't overthink it. The process is simple: start with the paint, then maybe add a clear coat depending on your needs. After that, spray the hairspray, followed by the next color. If necessary, you can repeat this process to achieve the desired effect.

    Another great video! Coming down to the wire too. I never could get masks to work right either. Just did them by hand like you do. If it works, don't mess with it. What kind of airbrush do you have? I've got one that's probably 50 years old. I bought it at a Sherwin Williams paint store when i was in high school. The brand name is Binks. Like most of the professional automotive painters use except way smaller. Getting back into models again and now need a different prescription for my glasses. If it ain't one thing, it's half a dozen others. Still taking notes too. You're doing a jam up job on the videos. I enjoy them very much. I appreciate all the trouble you must go through to make em.

I actually have a cameo silhouette to cut my own, but if you’re referring to masks like that, I think the lettering is just too small for it to get cut properly so that’s why I went with the decals.
