Thanks Dan, Andy, Wayne and CR.
Yesterday I was able to get down the first coat of gloss, so today it was time to decal up. This was accomplished but it was not without it's "moments", particularly with the large "Dirty Dora" nose decals. It did reveal that the masks are close, but not exactly matched to the decals. I was left showing a little bit of blue at the bottom which I will need to correct on the starboard side and at the very front around the guns.
The gloss did even out the shading I did earlier, so it's not as prominent. I will probably do a little more shading over the decals and add some staining from the gun muzzle blast.
Here's the pics.
Cheers
Peter
