This my second and final kit and it wasn't too much of a horror story the Matt paints only needed three coats and I took the tip to discard the tail decal stripe and I painted one on and the decals went on without to much drama.20190416_180818.jpg20190416_180902.jpg20190416_180913.jpg20190416_180924.jpg20190416_180952.jpg

Where's the starboard serial Peter? Your decals certainly have less silvering than mine. Your paintwork must be smoother.

I blame the carpet monster's cousin, the decal imp.
They don't seem to stick very well do they.

Neat looking result Peter.:thumb2:
I didn't even dare touch the area's close to the decals on mine as they looked they could fall off with the slightest touch.
