Thanks for stopping by chaps.
So, a bit more progress. After painting the white, it had a day or so to dry and then masked for the red. Which was a real pain. I build aircraft, with nice smooth fuselages, I'm not used to all these lumps and bumps protruding right where I need to run some tape. So, after establishing my initial demarcation between the white and where the red was going, I resorted to cling film. As you can see, it catches the overspray quite nicely.



Unmasked and time for some spare decals. The number is quite fictitious, no point looking it up. This was the quickest decal job I have ever done. I think this picture is after the satin coat, so it's now ready for weathering. I like this bit.
