Need to use masking tape cover the edges then remove tape when paint still wet. Bandai got sell the bandai branded masking tape but normal masking tape is enough.

This one so small need to use the tabletop magnifying glass for electronics soldering and tweeters to apply the masking tape.

I got a question. What do you do with completed models? Take a few photos and chuck one side? This question bothering me to start working on my pile of shame.
When you finished a model kit. Especially when you personally painted it. It will stood a place in your heart everything you look at it. All the sweat and tear
