I like the pose of your figure there Jakko.

Hi, You can find a lot of instructions on scale mates, see this page, scroll a bit down...Would you by any chance have instructions for this model ? I've started mine last year, and we've got flooded and they were lost. I would like to finish it, but it's a bit hard without the instructions. If you could scan yours, or at least take pics of each page, it would be very helpful...
I’d be happy to, though Steven has already linked to a page where the instructions can be found, so I suppose you have what you need already Looking forward to seeing what you make of this kit!@Jakko Would you by any chance have instructions for this model ?

I find them to work okay but not as great as I had hoped. These seem to stick to the sheets far better than the old Verlinden ones I used to use fairly frequently 25–30 years ago, and that makes them much harder to use. The main trick, as far as I can tell, is to make sure you hold half the sheet firmly to the model while you rub the other half with a suitable tool¹ — vigorously but not so much that you move the sheet.You can carefully lift up the free side of the sheet to check the decal comes loose. Once done, ensuring you keep the sheet where it is, press the “finished” half down and rub the other half.I don't like those rub down transfers - I have a lot of failures. I hope you find a method to use the shipping stencils.
That would require a base and some kind of crane on it, which is rather more effort than I intend to go to … this will simply be a stand-alone model without a base. I hope the figure’s pose conveys he’s beckoning something above the tank to come closerwould be great if you could add a cable/hook in it's final display-location, but might not be possible.
