Checkin if it's possible to paint the gloss white by hand ... to me it looks good.

White and grey have been brush painted. On the wing masking has been done with Tamiya tape... Grey on the fuselage has been painted free hand ,,,, Yes ... I know ... it needs some retouching. Anyway I'll check if the decals cover that.

Chat line masking. First I put masking tape over the decal and marked the outline with a pencil.

Put the tape on the model , and brush painted with grey.

Some retouches were needed with a fine brush. I found a note holder at the office that's very useful for small kits.
