Masking work and the results it produces. Definitely a few places need touch up especially the backpack vent in the back.

About to mask this off and embed it in the head. I like to work on pieces separately and build out like nesting dolls.

But of a speed build so I can get right to customizing and painting. Pretty nice kit for an oldie, always preferred this to the hygogg when these kits first came out.

All the waterslides are done and most of the panel lining too. Just got some more panel washing on the legs left to do. The pin stripe water slides were a fun challenge to get right and they look amazing just as I'd hoped.
