Happened to me today, really excited to get going on my diorama, but I have to get through my GB entries first!

You think thats bad....I have another GB after I finish the the Do-17 until im caught up.

 

[Catch22]

Oh, I've still got one from the Med and BoB GBs! They've fallen by the wayside though, and I will probably save them until winter.

I stand corrected...

cheers Dogsbody

and thank you Aaron.

[rochie]

started the decals today, sharks mouth is a nightmare, does not fit at all i have a large gap at the bottom that i'm going to have to try and paint in, will try and post a pic tomorrow !

 

[Crimea_River]

Had that problem with the Wespe too Karl. What a pain in the a$$.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

I've found all sharks mouth's a pain Karl, so you're not alone buddy.

 

[Gerry]

Looking forward to seeing your progress, Karl

 

[rochie]

here's my problem !
pic is from my phone's camera but it shows the gap i need to fill in with paint

 

[Crimea_River]

Wow, that's just not right. Are you sure you placed it correctly? I mean, it seems the whole thing is too far up the fuselage. Can you post a pic from the side?

 

[rochie]

Andy i spent an hour yesterday trying to fit those decals, going by the instructions and the ref pics they are in the right place with regards to the sides.

if i tried to close the gap at the bottom they just dont fit around the nose and are way to low, there is a small white triange with the sharkmouth decals which i'm starting to belive is to fill in the rear gap but there is nothing on the instructions about it or any "filling in"

compare with the pics on page 2, i may be a little high but not enough to cause that gap !

 

[T Bolt]

I've had to fix worse Karl, It'll turn out fine. Just remember to paint the white first!

 

[rochie]

cheers Glenn, my plan is to fill that gap with red paint then use this white triangle decal to complete the "teeth", no white paint needed

 

[Airframes]

I'd paint it white first Karl, ans then do the red, using the white decal last. Otherwise, the red paint might show through the white decal. I think you'll find it will be easier than you think.

 

[Crimea_River]

It'll look fine when you're done Karl.

 

[vikingBerserker]

Yikes!

 

[Wayne Little]

You can do it Karl.....look forward to more man....
