Finished at last.

One of these days I will have no silvering with the decals.

A cute beauty, Stephen :). Well done! I think we all get the silvering at times. To be honest I don't know how to eliminte it. I try to get a good gloss surface and still get it

It's the corrugated surface to blame this time. What you need to do is get the decals wet with a setting solution, wait a while until the decal is soft, and then carefully force the decals down into the depressions using something like soft foam.

That has turned out really well. The silvering is a major problem with corrugated or other uneven surfaces.

Very nice build. How did you get the guns to look so realistic? Are they aftermarket? Thank you for sharing.

Guns are the kit's guns, I painted them black and highlighted them with a 2B pencil.
