The Tamiya decals are thick, the ones for the front edge I.D. strips split instead of wrapping around the edge.

Yep. I ended up masking and painting them. There are a couple of small details left, but they can keep til morning. I am done for today.
Thanks for looking in!

That looks pretty good Paul, in the case of this kit the decals are pretty ordinary unless going on a flat surface, so painting those stripes was always going to be on the cards...
 
Looks very nice, Paul. I have thrown in the towel on the decal based stripes on the '51. I have the underside stripes painted on now and decided to remove the decal stripes on the upper side of the wings. I will be repainting them tonight, I hope. Let's see, 2 steps forward, a step and half back.....
