Not a good idea posting this in a public forum. should have pm'ed him or let the other guy do it if he trusts him. It is illegal and namco does go after people. Stuff like this can ruin the future for everyone who wants stencils.

Time to add the red to the front.

Stencil lined up with the registration marks and applied

Premask removed

Hmmm...something seems odd around the mouth. Why would there be yellow masked off?

Let's check my reference material

Okay, the stencils are wrong. The blue was supposed to come down and fill that area on the corner of the mouth. :angry: I'll have to touch it up with a brush after the red is done. Looking at the black stencils, the blue area will end up being kind of small and I should be able to fill it and not have it too noticeable.

Another issue is that the eyes were not masked off on the blue stencil. If they were, red could have been the first color just like the sides (which would have simplified things). I'm worried that the blue under the eyes would make the red too dark. I considered going with a coat of white, but decided to just go forward with red.

Cab masked off and ready for painting

I put on several coats of red, giving the paint a few minutes between each to dry a bit. This was necessary to get a good color on the eyes. At first it was way too dark and really noticeable when compared to the mouth. After a few coats, it all evened out :applaud:.

Stencil removed

Here is a close up of the mouth area. I'll need to fill in the yellow on the upper left side of the mouth with blue paint.

And the current status of the cab:

Once I fix the mouth issue, it will be ready for the last stencils! I should have time this weekend for the black paint.

I used a small paint brush to touch up the missing blue on the mouth area
