Here you are simple way to cut the strip of tape and make protection for the camouflage painting.

I had a Heller 1/72 kit and compared with all others medium bombers of that time this one is most interesting. Few decades ago I have watch at Yugoslav TV bombing exercise were was trained drooping of A bomb. What was intriguing me is that at the last moment before the bomb release, man from the control center has count from 10 to 1 and then pilot or bomber officer [navigator] had push the trigger. And I don't understand how the operator in center could know the moment when bomb have to be drop, there was not data transfer link as we know them today.

Great image of one of the greatest modern fighter and fighter bomber. Pity that in the '60 we did not equip with this machine as that was planed.

Book about modeling with 300+ pages!!! This is something most interesting I hear and hope you will inform us more. And better to say maybe we could arrange something for web if you agree.
Here you are the result of the topside painting, plane now have camouflage over the top wings. To regret I have miss correct shape over the starboard wing and I will rework this in one of next step. In this moment I hunt for the swastika 1/72 decals as well I miss this lot for the final finish of the kit.
Maybe this will be a detail of interest for the many of modelers and this is the method how I dry smaller kits like this one. Simply I put it on the topside of my Apple monitor. It have perforated top surface for the air ventilating. Very good thing is that air blow upward so it blow away all dust. Also air so warmed, but it can not damage the plastic. So it dry properly and no dust. Problem is that all modern monitors are TFT so in some future I will not have that good dry place but based on this experience I will make dry chamber for that purpose.

Lets finish with profiles with this two sample. First one have been abandoned damaged in Poland and the other one is tested by RAF after the war. Sorry to say but I did not have good images for British one. If any have any good image from starboard side I would be grateful to see them as reference for profile.... or this profile will be deleted forever

Welcome aboard Greg 
For those who does know, Greg is owner of one great web place Unofficial Airfix Forum.
Phantom is great plane and it is possible with that type to make that large number of display. I do believe that look at that number of kits displayed is marvelous an I hope that I could come next year. I have to come this year as well I get invitation but due to some orders and very sharp deadline I was simply bind to my workstation...

No doubt that you read my mind.... I just was thinking to suggest you to make some sketch if possible as guide for the modelers how to improve their kits 
This is perfect, thank you
