I don't generally like to repost the same material in two forums but I posted this in Plastic Pics and, since that's mostly airplanes, some of you guys may not see it. It's the Polar Lights PHANTOM OF THE OPERA plastic kit.

After base coating him, I cut strips of masking tape and applied them to the figure. Then I sprayed a blue/grey shade. In this photo, you can see the process although he hadn't yet been flat coated.

Seeing your pic leads me to mourn once again for the demise of PL.

The pinstriping's fantastic, by the way.
