Poppop Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 I'm ready to start applying the Fundekals P-51D/K Factory Stencil Data to my 1/32 Tamiya. But a question has arisen! The instructions say "All markings are readable when viewed from the leading edge." That statement leads me to believe that the wing stencils would be 180 degrees from what I usually do... up until now I apply the stencils so they can be read when the wing is positioned with the trailing edge closest to me. I hope this question is understandable... and my confusion can be cleared up... until the next time. Thanks to all in advance... Charlie L Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jennings Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 The bottom of the lettering is toward the trailing edge. Imagine yourself crouching down under the wing. If you were at the front of the wing (facing the tail) looking up at the lower surface of the wing, you would be able to read the words correctly. If you were at the back edge of the wing looking forward, it would be upside down to you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Poppop Posted February 8, 2016 Author Share Posted February 8, 2016 Thanks Jennings for the prompt reply... it's not hard to confuse me... but your explanation was great. Now to the basement! Charlie L Quote Link to post Share on other sites
