Thanks guys. One side of the fuselage done. There is a sliver of silver where the arrow is pointing. That was more me than the decal fault. I spent so much time trying to get it to lay flat on two planes and bend around a corner, I felt it was destined to rip at any moment. I can add a sliver of spare green shortly. Ignore the white above the arrow, that's glare. The other piece in front lined up perfectly

​
 
Thanks all. With the stripes done on the left side I started adding additional decals


​
Tother side started

​

This could have gone a lot faster if Lifelike had included some sort of step by step instructions. A lot of time was spent cutting out and laying down copies to make sure everything went in the right place. Larger diagrams would have helped as well
 
Thanks all. Last of the green stripes are on and narrowly avoided disaster. The final stripe I placed that goes over the star and bar and under the canopy split in three pieces. I flooded the area with water and after many minutes managed to get it almost back to perfect.....almost, there is one tiny step and I kept trying to nudge it into place but I could see other cracks starting to form so I left it


​
Now gloss coated and once dry I can apply the rest. Hope to have this done by the weekend.
