Kendzior Posted January 4, 2019 Author Share Posted January 4, 2019 (edited) It's been a while, isn't it? The reason was simple - Racoon Special. Four times tried to apply that marking and failed. So, the Hayabusa has been shelved for some time. Today I just decided to give it a try once more. The fifth try, again with the custom made decals, and I think I will leave it as it is. All the previous attempts failed due to the thickness of the decal film covered with a clear coat. I used Bare Metal's Experts-Choice No.121 as a clear decal. Tried to secure the print with Microscale's Liquid Decal Film, as suggested by the instruction, tried others - the result was always poor: the edge of the decal was clearly visible, just as it was a panel line. The solution was not to follow the instruction, as regards securing the printed markings with the clear varnish. This time I decided not to secure the markings, and not to soak the print during its application. And it worked quite well. I mean, the edge of the decal is still visible, but I believe that under the clear coat it will be only hardly visible. Best regards Hubert Edited January 4, 2019 by Kendzior Alain Gadbois, D.B.

bdthoresen Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Wow, Hubert that has to be one of my favorite Hayabusa models I have ever seen. Great work!
