Grunticus Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 (edited) I just finished this one. A joy to build, and all fun. The shark mouth was airbrushed on, the rest are the kit decals except for the serials. They were also a pleasure to play with. Very thin but also prone to curling and ripping (once on the model. So aim carefully to minimize positioning). The serial number decals both ripped so I made a mask with the Silhouette cutter for the serial numbers. No harm done. There's a smudge on the right rear-window where Tamiya panel line accentuator crept under the tape and reacted with the Tamiya tape glue. I tried removing it with ethanol, IPA, turpentine, but no joy. Alas. Cheers!
