Greg How cool that you did that, Ernie. You're certainly welcome, and they look great. (You did a better job at it than I did, I'll have to stop by one day when I'm down yonder and have you show me how to do it right!!)

Thanks. That would be great.
Too many models to build, not enough time in a lifetime!!
I did Greg’s method on these 1/32 seats a while back and came out looking great.
Will be a bit challenging at 1/48 but it’s a great idea.Thanks Greg
Paul and John, I'm humbled that you remembered my ejection seat pull handles.
And thanks for finding the thread, John. I'm getting ready to get back at it with the Phantom and you just saved me searching for my own thread!!
Thanks Keavdog
That's exactly it!
here you go

Thanks,

It was Greg that did the awesome ejection seat handles. I think it was on a ZM Phantom
Eagle
A friend brought those decals to my attention and suggested that also. I have one of those fine micron pens that I could use but maybe there's a better way. I know it's a small detail but attention to detail is what we do.
I know this doesn't really answer your question as far as painting techniques goes, but Airscale makes decal sheets that have standard US labels and placards on them...they even have some for the ejection handle, seat arming handle, and release handle on the ACES II that have lettering on them. I used those on the ACES II in my F-16 and was pretty happy with the result. Aside from that, the decal sheet has large patches of diagonal stripe patterns of different colors that you can cut to fit things.
"You can have my illegal fireworks when you pry them from my cold, dead fingers...which are...over there somewhere."
I think I saw somewhere in the forum pages a trick to painting ejection seat handles. Anyone know the technique I'm referring to? It wasn't just using a fine paint pen or brush and painting the yellow on. My project has the handles on the lower seat between the pilots knees.
Thanks in advance
Paul
