Hi all
I need you help, i am builiding C-130 1/72. How do you guys mask the canopy before paining??

My canopy is huge and i just dont know what might work. Should i hand paint in or just mask every window in it.

Thanks for all your help

For me it would depend, if the window edges are raised they could be hand-painted carefully.

More likely I would cover/mask the whole part and cut out the struts from the masking, temporarily install the part on the kit and paint it together.

I have always used scotch 'green ’ tape to mask and a craft knife, then airbrushed as normal
