I would imagine your having sleepless nights would not help, your gyro must be way out of kilter.

not a very big hit these days.
Wojtek is right, I used the wrong grey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GDammit!
Just re-painted the re-paint. Running out of paint!
Found a decal printer in the States, afraid to find out what he charges.

It could be the light trick at your workshop but the MSG looks too greenish. It looks like the Sky S type rather . IMHO the MSG should be the FS 36270 aproximately.

Yes Wojtek, I had both, confusion made me pick up the wronnnnng bottle.
I do have all three colors as you posted, did all along, just didn't read the notes to "self".
Good you are here to check on me. Many thanks.

Thanks for everyones concern.
I'm okay. Keeping track of levels, back to 8.3 as a norm. It was a first experience for me. But.....
Ready to put the green on this one, prob today!!!!!

 

[N4521U]

Well it's all re-painted!
Proper colours this time thank you Wojtek for picking it up!

 

[Donivanp]

I do like your workmanship Mr. Bill! I do indeed

 

[Wurger]

Looking very nice. Can't wait to see the final effect.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Good one Bill, glad its back on track.

 

[N4521U]

So I have found a decal printer in Kennnnntuckey! USofA.
Prices are reasonable, in US$, x 1.5 in AU$ exchange rate.
He's saying about 2 weeks I should have them in hand.
I do wish I could build Out of the Box sometimes.
Build 58 and 61 require White side codes, I want them White!!
So we shall see. Meanwhile I may do some assembly.
Over and out.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Good find Bill, it will help you with all your amazing off the mainstream builds.

 

[Donivanp]

Is that two USofA postal weeks or Australia postal weeks? Good you found a source.

 

[N4521U]

Is that two USofA postal weeks or Australia postal weeks? Good you found a source.

That would be 2 Fedex weeks!

 

[SaparotRob]

That would be 2 Fedex weeks!

Is that before or after converting from liberty units?

 

[Gnomey]

Good work so far Bill!
