[WWI] Masking Spads

[Matt Bittner]

As Neil, I mask to airbrush, using plain, 'ol masking tape, first stuck
to the forehead to remove some tack.

If the Eduard masks are the "kabuki", "tape" kind then they should
work.  If they're the older vinyl masks, then only use them as a
stencil to draw out on to other masking materials.  I say that because
the masking tape I used was the wider stuff, so you can get just about
one mask out of one piece of tape.

A little help on painting Spads, please.  What say the experts?  Do
you:
 
    1. Handpaint the 5-color camouflage, or
    2. Mask it so you can spray the various colors?  (If so, what's
your preferred masking medium?), or
    3. Use the Eduard painting masks?  (I have these, but do they
work?)
 
    Since the models will be 1/48 and 1/32 I think I would prefer to
use Option #2, but I await your advice.
