I have some Black Magic masks to help me with the camo paint scheme on my P-40C. Should I paint the underside first, then the camo, or whats the better method?

Thanks

Redman,

I recomend you start with the light colors first, i.e. the light gray on the bottom then the top colors. The darkest should be sprayed last. HTH.

Hey Redman

Gotta agree with the Chief on this one. Start light and build up to the darkest colour.
