Well, my try at carbon decalling got carried away on the BMW. I decalled the frame, then used some Alclad on the engine and swingarm and ended up with all sorts of subassemblies. 

Which has led to the frame being almost done.

That looks super cool Carl. I always found, when I cover the cf-decals with clear semi matte, they even look more realistic. The gloss looks great immediately, but matting down lifts it to another level and unifies the single decals better.

Looking very sharp there Carl ! 

Thanks PW! I'm going to actually try and finish this before I get ahem, sidetracked/distracted by something new.

Thanks Rob! I thought about a semi-gloss clear for the carbon as well but decided to go with the gloss as it's exposed and the bodywork will be gloss paint as well.
