Eduard Express Masks are in place. The gaps have been covered with Tamiya masking tape, cut to size.

The wheel wells, cowl intake and vent have been stuffed with tissue paper. The wheel wells have already been painted RLM 02.

The canopy has been sprayed RLM 02 (the colour of the framing). The nose and fuselage bands have also been painted.

The nose and fuselage bands are masked. The model is ready for its camouflage!
