Looking to complete a similar build like yours (looks good btw), I have the xh558 boxing of the Vulcan, only thing is the decals don't have the Spirit of Great Britain text. Just wondered how you made yours, I know the difficulty of creating white decals with an inkjet printer.

I am in the process of building XH558, and like one of the other contributors, am having difficulty finding decals for the interior of the bomb bay doors showing the contributor names ... if you are able to help I would be extremely grateful. Thanks Rod
