Got more done today. Finished installing the retracts and inner gear doors. Cut out the hinomaru's on frisket paper for the upper insignias. The uppers have a white ring around the red so the frisket stencil is in two pieces. In the pictures you can see the small pieces of blue tape around the painted circle. They help hold the out ring in place while the red is painted. After the red dries I will put the center frisket paper back over the circle and then remove the ring stencil so the white can be painted. The wing bottom hinomaru's were cut with a bladed compass right on the wing, again using frisket paper. The bottom of the wing has been painted and now I need to make the stencils for the fuse. They too will be cut right on the fuse. A very light touch will be needed so not to cut into the fuse while cutting through the frisket.
