Thanks guys, it is also a bit of an experiment for the Meng T90 I have waiting for paint, Not sure how I am going to tackle the pre-shading and highlighting on it yet?

I had a similar problem with tape and decals recently- even the great Tamiya yellow tape was tacky enough to pull off sealed down decals! Just one of those things Scott! The paint on the body looks good to me- where do you reckon you went wrong with it?

Thanks buddy, the paint went on a bit to thick in places when I was airbrushing the cammo. I was having a bad day yesterday and everything I tried to do went wrong, my sotar 20/20 airbrush has not been playing ball lately so I have ordered a new nozzle and needle for it.
I am hoping some weathering might hide the parts where the paint went wrong?

Looking good, Scott.. sorry about the interior.. it would have looked nice opened up.
A good trick I saw for using Tamiya tape on something sensitive is to stick it to the back of your hand a couple of times before using it to take most of the tack out of it... Some guys do that before taping over metalizers and things like that.

Thanks guys, after looking at the decals I am not sure you will see where they have come off once the body is in place? I will have another look with a clear head.
