Hi, everyone.
I'm having some trouble with Micro Mask. I tried it for the first time using it for masking areas other than canopies. I tried masking off the camoflauge on Airfix's Martlet. I had already painted the underside with Tamiya sky, and masked that off as well as the area that was to be the stone grey color, in order to paint the green camo.
I airbrushed the green using ammo of Mig acrylics. I waited 24 hours then commenced with peeling the Micro Mask off. This is where the trouble started. As I peeled the masking off, the green started to lift up at its edges. In some places it wasn't bad at all, and in others, it looks terrible. Some of the vallejo primer even lifted up with the masking. The Tamiya shy, however, was perfectly fine.
I don't know what I did wrong. Should I have waited longer for the paint to dry? Or maybe Ammo of Mig paints don't adhere well?
Maybe there's a better way to mask cammo?
Help!
