I love the paint work on this build. I have some questions about the masking technique. I assume that that the tape for the separation line remained in place during the application of the Continental Silver and Metalic Gun Metal. After you shot the red, masked it for the separation line, masked the body for the application of the first of the two tone colors, and applied the first of the two tone colors, how long did you wait before masking for the second of the two tone colors? Also, how did you leave the separation line masking on the body long enough to mask, paint, fully dry the first two tone color and partially dry the second two tone color without affecting the crisp red separation line. I guess what I'm asking is why didn't the red separation line crack when you lifted the tape in light of the fact that it had to be on the body for a very long time. Any insight into this technique, from anyone, will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance..
