martinfan5 Posted April 18, 2012 Author Share Posted April 18, 2012 That will be gorgeous! G I agree, but that means I have to mask, arrggg, here is a pic of the radio/switch box on the center console of the charger police, I need to make them a tad bit bigger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent G Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 I took what you sent me and printed it at 75% of that. Looks real good in the Dodge. Gimme a min and I'll photograph them. G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent G Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 They look good to me! As far as the paint scheme, get some Tamiya masking tape, and paint light to dark. White base, then yellow, then red, then the dk. blue. G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinfan5 Posted April 19, 2012 Author Share Posted April 19, 2012 (edited) They look good in there, did you sand down the detail on the console?, I have some 3m auto masking tape, I will try that maybe, or if I make to the LHS before I get some white paint, I will pick some up. Isnt Tamiya masking tape narrow?, not as wide as normal masking tape?, if so I will use it, will make it easier to the red and yellowish/gold stripes Edited April 19, 2012 by martinfan5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent G Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 I didn't sand down the switch detail. It gives a subtle "depth" to the add on radio face. Read as, I was too lazy to sand the mo fo. Tamiya tape comes in many widths, and if you have a sheet of glass, can be cut however you want. G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G As yes, I find myself to lazy for things all the time, thats one thing I am bad at, cutting starting lines, you should see the room I built, I couldn't cut the drywall straight, and I had all the right tools to help get the cuts straight I ordered the diecast wheels to use .
