You're doing the reverse swastika right...easy ...just use painter's blue or green tape...use a shaker can from a distance so you don't get any bleed...or use dry brush technique ;)

STENCILS! Paint everything no decals allowed! Make your own, get GOOD masking tape, put a piece on glass draw your pattern, cut out with xacto knife, lift tape stencil off glass and place on tank, smooth down real good, apply paint, peal off stencil and amaze yourself at the awesomeness of your mad skills and work.
OH...Yeah...what Jack said lol

Some pinlining /color blending will make that paint job POP .... still think you should try painting your own swastika ...that would make her really stand out :D

So far So good ED :thumbup:

No Problemo ED....just a tip for doing the Swas....just do one bar...then turn it :D ...that way it will be the same size...just make sure you center it the second go around ;)
