Andy I Posted July 2, 2022 Author Share Posted July 2, 2022 The custom decals have arrived... The carrier film was very thin, fragile and was in a single piece across the sheet that required the decals to be cut to shape. It took a couple of goes with the 'C' but very pleased with the result. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paj66 Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Lovely example! I’m repainting a 1/32 scale one for a guy that used to display it. Your colour looks spot on - would you mind divulging the mixture ratios of the colours you used? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the base was AK PRU Blue with added XF-8, XF-50, XF26 & XF2. I still have a big jar of it left over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
