            Hi Mark
            As you say painted markings do look better than decals. I am certain you'll be successful. Just take time and care with the masking and plan well.
            Jim

                    Not perfect but time I've done the orange and a little touching up then done a matt coat I'll be able to live with it ,some weathering to dirty them up a bit. That's my first go and know how I can improve the next time so it's all good.Click image for larger version

                      That’s not looking bad at all. A little touching up of the white and it’ll be fine.

                        No complaints from me Mark. A little bit of bleed as you say but considering it was your first attempt, very well done.

                          Mark,
                          First class build and paint. As you say a bit of touching up to clean up the bleed under.
                          We used to watch and photograph 104's at Alconbury in the days before protesters and field invasions, just sitting on a three bar fence waiting for the next surprise to arrive.
                          Mike.
