Hi Phil,
Sorry, designed the decals for our one. I'll send you a couple of the printed, self adhesive ones. You'll still need to cut them but once stuck and sealed with varnish should be fine.
Best regards
Dave

Re: David's carrier build.
Dave I have mounted the decals onto a piece of .5 plasticard and the technique is working well, it supports the fragile decals and provides a nice flat stable surface so I'm happy, you just need a steady hand with a scalpel.

Re: David's carrier build.
Lots done, forgot to mention ref the decals, you will need to use clear lacquer to seal the decal sheet once it's transferred to the plasticard .
- Attachments
-
- Fiddly and time consuming job but worth the effort, you will need to remove lots of little screw and switch details to give you some room to apply the decals
-
- That's better
-
-
-
- The radio bolted in but easily removable
-
- Hand rails
-
-
- These need fixing with Velcro
-
- Dave do you want the front sand guards fitted?
-
- The rounded hull side tops now fitted

Re: David's carrier build.
A bit more done

- Final track link journal dressing maybe for the last time
-
- A little tip, a small amount of cyno to hold the difficult to get to m2 bolts in place
-
- A tad of belly weathering whilst she's on her side
-
-
- Sand guards mounted
-
- Using uv cured resin to make the instrument glass, a tip, be patient and let the resin flow out then apply the uv lamp to cure the resin, to much light and you will get bubbles!

Re: David's carrier build.
Just a couple of hours today prepping and painting the myriad of small parts associated with the front plate .

- If you can get over the track fetling with this model then you will love it, there so much in such a small kit.
-
-
- Everything goes through the brass brush treatment
-
- Not a great deal of cleaning up to do but each piece needs a little attention
-
-
- The sun was out so paint curing is so much quicker
