Looking good. However the D letter seems to be a little bit oversized.

I was hoping it wouldnt show that much !

It only became noticable once they were one the model, they are all i have for now so will do for me given i need to get these finished !

 

[Wurger]

OK. No problemo.

Looks good Karl. I missed why the D is different. I didn't have that issue with mine.

Thanks Andy.

I used the D from one of the other schemes on the decal sheet, it didnt look too bad on the paper but once on the model it was more noticable.
I did consider using the D from my Tamiya mk I kit i have but it looks just as thick and am unsure of the colour match !

Sometimes you just go with the flow...

Looking good Karl. Did you use Vallejo for the Dk. Earth. I have some but it looks too dark.

Thanks. I went and checked my bottle. It's ModelAir for when I ever get around to an airbrush, but it still seems too dark.
