Thanks for all the comments, gents! I post-shaded the Brown camo on the Tiger this morning and removed the Washi Tape with no problems at all. I will let this set up and then mask again and apply the NATO Black to finish out the camo. This is going too smoothly for a HobbyBoss kit. Best wishes, Ian

Thank you for all the kind words, gents, as I am very flattered. I added the third color to the camo and I used AK NATO Black for this and it laid down perfectly, as usual. I added some very subtle post-shading using the NATO Black which was lightened with a drop of white. I pulled off all the Washi tape and no catastrophes, fortunately. (This is going too smoothly for a normal HB project  ) Most of the sub-assemblies are done but I still have to build the rocket pods for the stub wings. Once the paint sets up, I will go over the panel lines with pencil and she will be ready to put together. Best wishes, Ian
