1/72 scale hawker hurricane invasion stripes

"Invasion stripes" on single-engined aircraft were 18 inches in width. Converted down to 1/72 scale, this is approximately 6.3mm. If "close enough" is ok, Tamiya's 6mm tape should fit the bill nicely.

Go with Flat paints, as by that pointy in the war, most all Allied aircraft markings were in flat/matte colors. Paint the white first then mask off to paint the black. It is always easier to paint lighter to darker.
