Great news on the decals!
 
good news about the decals.
and lovely job. but i would suggest a small layer of tamiyas smoke ( number X-19 ) with the black in the xshaust. that will give it a more shine oily appereance..as the black now looks to dull .. as the origonal exshaust does have a more greasy content

just a suggestion

but man it looks good

Was that beginning staining done with pastels or the airbrush Wayne??? Looks good so far...Glad to see u got some closure on the decal issue...

Dan, all the exhaust staining was done with Black Pastels....easiest way to completely control the effect...


Thanks for the suggestion Guttorm, didn't know that, will do that 'extra' later on. next main thing is to seal it with gloss coat and then solve the oily appearance in the latter stages...probably add a little brown and light grey mixed in too...
 
Take your best shot Karl, what ever you want...you only have to ask mate!

Extra decals in the post from the UK...John from AIMS was very helpful, wanting to help in some way and appreciated the feedback I gave him...he sincerely was not aware of the issue with the white and will be looking at solving it with the decal manufacturer with future reprints and new decal projects.

Masked the Nose canopy today took a bit over an hour and some trimming was required for a good fit, more canopy masking tomorrow and Pics!
 
Main canopies masked...masks aren't perfect, had to do some cutting and repositioning....obvious in the pics! approx. 2 hours work to do both!
