Sea Fury colors

Silly question but, what’s a good technique to get the demarcation line between the colors on a Sea Fury? I know it’s a hard mask, but how do you judge the proper location.

For the wings I scan the instructions and scale them to the model’s size, then print them to use as masks. It’s harder for the fuselage, since it is round, so I just eyball it and cut masks to fit. It takes a few tries, checking that the left and right sides match up in the middle, but it works for me.

Thanks John, I’ll give that technique a try. By the way, the P-38E that you posted ealier this month, were those the kit decals?

Yes, they are.
