It was really difficult to figure out exactly where the blue sidepods should be masked. I wound up cutting the red pinstripe decals out of the decal sheet, and holding them against the model to judge where the edge of the blue should be. The kit provides a pair of white decals which I used as a template for the shapes on the monocoque in front of the sidepod. I traced these cut out decals in pencil on Tamiya 1cm wide masking tape. After a bit of trial and error (3 hours or so!) I think I finally got it right.



Also masked the underside of the front wing elements and the top of the lower rear wing element for gloss black
