TEMPESTMK5 Posted October 15, 2017 Author Share Posted October 15, 2017 Good evening Today I placed the decals . As the Carpena decals were definitely of no use I had to use a mix of decals from the kit and from my decals sheets stash : Patrice 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabba Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Very nice indeed. What problems did you have with the Carpena decal sheet? I know that when I have used them in the past on one side of model I would be able to apply the decal fine, whilst the corresponding decal on the other side would break apart and I would have t work to get it together again correctly.

TEMPESTMK5 Posted October 16, 2017 Author Share Posted October 16, 2017 Good morning Jabba The Carpena decals I wanted to use (Unit insignia , nose and tail numbers ) disintegrated when I placed them in the water I managed to replace them with decals from the kit and from my stash ..
