Oh yes please Peter , I had two very old ones left and they fell apart on the tile when wet . I tried to use a pe template but failed miserably.

As mentioned the other day I've kindly been sent by stillp( Pete ) some decals, so thanks to him I've been able to continue.



Just varnished,not photoed , pin wash tomorrow and then work out the placement as the first photo shows of the smashed landing gear . Followed by the base .

Thanks Pete, appreciated your help .

Does indeed Andrew, pity they weren't able to fly it well. Would have imagined it would have been great against the Germans on the Eastern Front .

Going well John. Have you noticed the RAF roundels painted out where the stars are located on your original picture? Might have been a cool detail to include :nerd:
