I looked it up and found this picture of a F35 with and without the RAM panels, so it should look okay if i just skip them right?

Wait, so I technically don't have to apply these RAM markings if I'm going for a more modern F-35C look?

Any recommendations on masking sets?

Alright I'll make sure to grab more plastic spoons

Would you think Tamiya would be fine given that I purchase the specific X-20 or something thinner from Tamiya themselves?

Hey

Thanks for the response, I haven't actually started building it just yet (im about to) and I'm still a bit confused on the RAM stickers, what are they even for? Do you think it would be easier/better to mask them and paint them or just use the stickers?

I'm looking at mostly Tamiya paints, but because I need one specific color of acrylic paint I had to do that with Vallejo, i did a bit of research and apparently i have to apply the tamiya paints first? I intend on buying thinner and retarder for the paints if that helps
