Projection of the paint scheme and masking

Oct 27, 2024

Here we start the process of masking. I use a cheap projector to project the outline to help layout masking lines.

I used a laser to align the nose lines.

Using the video projector is brilliant, never seen this!

Thanks!

The projector is KEY!

Never seen indeed, either build reports or Vario wiki (I won the 2nd prize in 2023 contest with Bell 212 1:7 build report). Usage of video projector looks to be generally "undocumented" or not used often, while makes so sense to use it for best scale results, like a laser. Maybe I miss something, that's possible

That pretty cool. I like it.
