PattheCat Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 (edited) Wow. 1/72, you're joking? I really like the fading effects on the paint and the light exhaust stains and...and...

rav Posted July 28, 2016 Author Share Posted July 28, 2016 Thank you all for your comments. Now let's look at the questions: Is this aircraft take-off assisted with rockets?Yes, it is. How behaved the decals for the walkways? Mine just fell apart (probably just me ) I had no problems with decals. I never use a force to move a decal on wet paper. If it does not move when touched, I just give it more time. Then I slide it on wet (Gunze decal liquid) surface of the model and gently slide it to position. Finally I touch the liquid with a piece of paper towel to take away the liquid and let the decal sit in the surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
