Andwil Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 I remember building one of these back in the day and feeling mighty pleased with it. I seem to recall that it flew into a wall 😭 Nice job on yours. Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Russell Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 I'm sure someone will punch out some red discs from an old decal or red decal paper for you if you specify the right diameter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModelMinutes Posted July 1, 2018 Author Share Posted July 1, 2018 You guys are so eagle-eyed! Yeah, the Decals weren't 100% right, perhaps I could change that in time - but for now i'm quite happy with the result Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
