I was very interested to look at the masking of the circles using a "ball of rubber skin" but could not read French and it loses the translation somehow. what exactly and where do you get a ball of rubber skin? Looks like it would be the best method to paint a Nieuport cone de penetration in the tricolor scheme. But your electrical tape did the job well.
Thanks

I therefore touched up the chin in the oil painting, and also painting the red and yellow on the nose and the forehead and the too dark blue forehead, the black plume missing at the end of the white feather, etc etc.

The end of the blue feather is cut.

It is not perfect but I cannot make better.


The frontal ring is painted with the flexible scotch tape which they use in jobs electrical. It leaves tasks of glue alas.

I read (but too late) here that they can make this with a ball of rubber skin:
