Agreed looking good!

Thank you gentlemen. Fuselage stripe applied. I knew this would be a battle as it is one piece and has to fit around the tail wheel gear doors and up on the dorsal fin. From past experience I know that, even though these decals are fairly hardy, they will tear after a bit of abuse. I decided to cut the decal in half and apply them both at the same time and probably took a little more than five minutes before I was happy. I would have painted them but I'm trying to push this one through

​

Note that its a different colour of red. Not sure why as it is printed between the red checkers....c'est la vie

Happy the stripes behaved.

Thanks Andy. Back to the fuel filler caps. I used my Shadow circle cutter and using a badly aligned Hobbycraft decal sheet, I cut out three 2.5mm circles

​

Two more stars and bars, nose art and then I can put on some stencils. Hopefully wrapped up this weekend; PG tomorrow though so that's a bit of a write off

I'm liking it George, it's going to be a stunner.
