1to1scale Posted February 5, 2018 Author Share Posted February 5, 2018 Thanks, I lost my steam when it came time to decal the wings, I hate decals. I have never decayed such a large surface, and I have a little bit of the jitters about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1to1scale Posted February 5, 2018 Author Share Posted February 5, 2018 When I finish my P-51, I'll give the wings a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1to1scale Posted February 23, 2018 Author Share Posted February 23, 2018 (edited) I forced myself to start the Lozenge decals tonight. I have been avoiding these for a month now. Decals are not my friends, but I bit the bullet and figured, I have backup wingnutdecals if I screw this up. In the end, these were not too bad, I trimmed them all up with a knife, then started dipping. I quickly learned not to use decal set, because hey won't slide with it. I'll start the bottom wing tomorrow night, and work the edges with micro sol on the top wing.

Trak-Tor Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 (edited) I wouldn't do it better myself... Juraj Edited February 23, 2018 by Trak-Tor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazzas Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Those wing decals look great. What scares me is the thought of trying to work the trailing edge. Gaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1to1scale Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 I lost my enthusiasm for this kit, I'm hoping to get back on it before I move and after I finish the Corsair. I hate doing decals, and very large decals like this really scare me. I have Decalaphobia. BiggTim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CANicoll Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Brave, brave man, but fortune favors the brave - looks fantastic! Not that I'm ready to jump into that just yet, but you nailed it. Great point about the setting solution - yeah, that tends to make things not move around... Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1to1scale Posted May 23, 2018 Author Share Posted May 23, 2018 Sadly, time ran out, my moving to Nashville has taken too much time out of my model building. I will not finish before the group build ends, I will have to ask the moderators to move this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
