I'm building the Tamiya Sd.Kfz 251 D kit, # 32564, for the current 1/48 campaign. Has anyone come across a suitable wheel mask for this kit? I'm using some of those green plastic and white plastic drafting circle guides, and pushing the wheels up into the circles while I spray them. I'm getting what I think are OK results, but I just want to paint the wheel, not re-invent it

The Tamiya line drawings are usually right to scale so maybe you can make a mask based on those with tape or plastic card? I don't know, I always do them by paint brush and thin paint
