Well, i think i can chime in here, make sure you srub the resin clean, and use sandpaper on the wings, it will make the paint adhere better. i dont know what was causeing the paint to come off, i had the same problem with all of my x-wings except the CC version, maybe its the resin Mike uses? i scrubbed the resin with detergent and let air dry etc..., i also use floquil paints which are kind of hot, and usually etch into the resin pretty good but it would pull off with the tape, every time.
So, like i said scrub it good and sand well, and dont use a lot of pressure on the mask, just on the edges, let dry and pull off the mask and tape at a 90 degree angle.
