Inverted Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Hi, I finished this one a couple of weeks back. Finally got her into the photo booth. Xtradecals leave a lot to be desired, with mis numbering, brittleness etc to deal with, but gentle coaxing with X-20A did the trick... 1:48 Airfix meteor F8 NEW TOOL Paints used: Gunze Light Aircraft Grey, Tamiya XF-3 Flat yellow, XF-69 NATO Black Extras: Pavla Mk 4 Seat, Albion Alloys telescopic Aluminium tube for Pitot Decals: Xtradecal X48160 CheersChris 53 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_W Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 That is seriously impresive. Was the dayglow decal or painted? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PattheCat Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 (edited) Those decals sure took you as much effort as a NMF. Nice contrasting effects in such a color scheme. A welcome change. Edited June 14, 2016 by PattheCat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
