Well, looking at that finish I’d say that rigging is for experts like you! She looks magnificent!Thanks Tim.
I've been working on the ordinance. The torpedo is a bit of artistic license. Needs a matt coat on the red but still doesn't look as I'd imagined it in my head, so may get repainted.

The wings have been fixed on and I'm working on the rigging. All I can say is horrendous! I understand see why they say "for experts"

Thankfully the rest of the build has gone rather quickly so I've got plenty of time to work my way through the rigging.
I know about the sharp blade to get rid bubbles and the use of MicroSol but I've not of heard of heat. How does that work?Decals finally toed the line. A couple split and many silvered badly, but persevering with a sharp blade, some heat, and plenty of microsol did the trick.
The side roundals in particular sit over some quite deep relief. Heat makes the decals more pliable & stretchy, helping them to conform without too many chemicals, which I find can make them brittle.I know about the sharp blade to get rid bubbles and the use of MicroSol but I've not of heard of heat.
