Ok now I have a bit more time, this is what I have been attending to...the available photo shows a broader white surround to the tail marking than the decals supplied so I have trimmed the decals and am adding a broader white surround.....doing one strip at a time allowing it to completely dry before moving on....

Great work Wayne. You chose to build a model with some quite complicated decals, but overcoming challenges like this is where the fun is with modeling, isn't it.

Great detail work there Wayne. Um, so, is Saturday the end of the beginning bit or the beginning of the end bit, or the end of everything. :evil: Can't wait which ever it is!

Cheers

Well I can get the final gloss coat on to seal those last markings and then move on to the flat coat probably Sunday, during this I can get the 'add on stuff' ready to go ....Canopy, wheels, undercarriage, prop, Aerial, guns etc!
