Look good there and it reminds me of one of my why didn’t I do it moments. On a work trip and one the guys we worked with had some friends at NASA and said he could get some tickets to sit in the ‘grandstands to watch the launch a couple of days after we were due to leave. Why didn’t I just rearrange my travel plans!

Should have masked it off and practiced for a digi cam job on a shelf queen ![(:))](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/ninja.png) . Stickerization looks jolly good from here Pete ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) .

Well unfortunately the shuttle has met an untimely demise, I was just finishing off some paintwork and had masked the areas with tamiya tape. On finishing removing the tape actually ripped up the decals below. Yes I had sealed the decals with some satin varnish but somehow they still got damaged ![>:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/superangry.png) With no way to repair said damage and my patience finally running out the model has been trashed!! Really peed off at the moment!! ![>:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/superangry.png)

So sorry to hear this Pete. Something that happened in my hobby room...A year or 5 back in time I dropped a base with three freshly finished models (a 2cm Flak and 2 Anhänger 51). Be sure I can feel your frustration brotha. We as modellers experience these horrible situations.
This is not the first time Tamiya masking tape polls off paint from a model.
