      The fuselage was masked up & the grey, then the blue added. The line between the white & the grey will be covered by a decal..................

      A few bits to touch up, then an overall pre-decal gloss varnish coat. I may add the long fuselage decals before finally adding the wings - easier handling, with what may be a fiddly operation

        Hi Dave
        As has been said it's smaller than I imagined. Looks good. I think your plan to put the decal along the fuselage before fitting the wings makes a lot of sense.

          Coming on nicely Dave. Although that strikes me a pretty long decal you'll have to lay down.....

            The side decals are in two pieces, but I'm not sure whether that's an advantage, or not, I'll see tomorrow!

                Decalling started - My normal decal tray was too short, so I had to find an alternative.....................

                Decals are pretty tough, they resist prodding around. The only complaint is that the decals are crammed together on the sheet, and it can be difficult to work out where one finishes & another starts. I'm doing one side at a time - it'd be too easy to mess up, if you tried to do both sides simultaneously!

                    Dave, sorry missed the updates. They've turned out pretty good considering the length and size.

                    Very well done .

                      Well done Dave with those decals. Very difficult to handle long and thin decals. I look forward to the reveal.
