They are very nice decals. Very thin. You have to be very careful applying them. At one point I was afraid I'd screwed the pooch on the big "Bardahl Special" on the nose but was able to sort it out okay. 🤪 Now that the exhaust stains are applied I can proceed with adding the other bits and pieces.

LOL Peter! No way! I seriously doubt that! 😄

Just about ready to start decaling. The prop and canopy are just set in place for the pic and not yet attached. Remember to click on the pic for best resolution.

Thanks Jeroen! I plan to get the exhaust stacks and wheel wells painted then see about applying some decals today.

LOL Carl. Just take your time and don't rush it (and have a good primer too). This paint job DID have it's moments though..... Right now I'm letting the model sit under a light so it will stay warm and get dry. I keep wanting to pick it up and do some other work on it but have to stop myself!!! LOL Tomorrow!

LOL I'll try not to disappoint!

Thanks Peter. I look forward to adding the markings as I think that will really set things off. However, there's still a lot to do first.

Thanks!

Thank you Ernie. Which one do you like best? The ANG bird or the ADC bird? Too bad you lost interest in yours as I know it would have been a really nice build. -
Thanks Gaz! I'm pleased so far!
-
Gloss white done! Shiny, shiny now! Used up darn near all my flat white and gloss white LOL. I'll let it sit for a while and then work on some of the other areas such as the exhausts, etc. Remember, click on the image for best resolution.

Although Japanese subjects aren't my cup of tea I look forward to seeing the completed model. Nice work so far.

Thanks Peter! Starting with the gloss white today.

Thank you Kai! I agree, painting white can be a PITA but, when all is said and done, it sure is nice looking! I'll start with the gloss white today.

After several coats of flat white it's about ready for some gloss white. As always click on the photo for best resolution.
