That is one phantastic Phantom!!!!

Great work on the paint job, I could stare at it for hours.  Such a refreshing change from the normal SEA and Navy/Marine shemes (not that there's anything wrong with them).

How did you mask the semi-circle section under the fuselage?  I always have so much trouble masking curves, that i just avoid them at all costs.

Any tips on how to get a nice curved mask would be greatly appreciated Wink

Chris.
