You got to be kidding, right?  Who can put into words the past that we all remember even tho it may be in different parts of this great land, USA.  Don't ask Rush about one of the last combat contests he participated in at the old Swope Park Site.  DOC Holliday

Don,
Don't want to see you go into "retirement". Thanks for doing this, and I will still be looking forward to your occasional posts.

Don,

It's the original Novi. And it's coming along. Currently has two colors on it and is waiting on me to spend the next 8 or so hours taping and masking for the third color. sigh.... Hours of taping and masking for 3 minutes of painting.

Randy.... TAPE N' MASK...WHAT A NIGHTMARE..especially if you are in a hurrrrry.
At the tunnel, I often would carefully tape off the taped trim lines and then slide a  clear drycleaning garmet bags over the parts and then water based felt marker...outline and back cut that thin, flexible clear garmet bag and then back mask the trim.
 After a few years of fussin' with these thin and fragile bags...the hanger paint shops had all kinds of nice large selections of clear bags of all kinds and sizes..that made those hurry-hurry-hurry---$$$ tunnel time is wastin' while U'rre tapin' and paintin...moments a teenie bit betta.
However, I also kept a batch of quick drying rubba' latex mold makin' goo that I thinned and ran through an old illegal touch up DeVilbus spray gun that I used for those really stubborn hard to mask areas around the stab-elevator-chin'-fillet areas..that often would lift when you least expected it.
 No problem with the latex mold as you could easily remove it with a quick rubbin' with those cheapy plentiful latex throw away gloves...NOTHIN' IS WORSE THAT FINGERPRINTS ON A SURFACE THAT IS READY FOR PAINTIN' (Retarded and thinned Epoxy paints reeeeeeeeally hate humanoidal' finger prints) Somehow...the brand of mold latex we used....didn't effect the paint surface...like so many other brands of spray or paint on masking materials have a nasty habit of MAKIN THOSE DREAMS INTO NIGHTMARES...

especially with those Gary Letsinger type aerodynamical' engineers with tight shorts and tight $$$ budgets...that expect fast and quality results.

GADS! I STILL DON'T BEGIN TO KNOW HOW BOTH YOU, RANDY....AND SPARKY BOB...FINISH THOSE BEAUTIFUL MODELS OF YOUR'S IN SUCH SHORT TIME FRAMES SPANS! 
WOW!
Everyone always says: U CAN'T RUSH CREATIVITY...BUT IN YOUR CASE:

RANDY AND BOB! U GUYS NEED TO SHARE YOUR SECRETS WITH THE WORLD! Even if we know that without talent...or the gift and lots and lots of practice with quality goals in mind....we mere mortals are still very much destended to mediocrittitittty' do-daaa day!  HB~>

one of my old display models (can't remember the scale but the body was about four feet in length and required gluing two pieces of beautiful walnut together for a base) that was in the entrance to  T.A's n' Frank Shrontz Plant 2 private office. I think after he left, that model is still in the Boeing archives...somewhere? BET THAT OL' SUPERPOX IS YELLOWED AND CRACKIN' BY NOW!

You just get used to tedium. Taping is a lot of little piece of tape and sometimes I feel like I'm doing needlepoint. I taped off the Novi today for the third color. It's a sort of checkerboard pattern. Man, what pain. About 5 hours into it and it's maybe 2/3 done and I still need to mask after that.

But I sure like the result.
