IP decal simply came apart. Used what I could. Full speed ahead.

“What” is easier than “Who,” but in any case your cockpit work looks excellent despite whatever the decal decided to do. In fact, it’s not noticeable. You made the right call to continue onward, Lyle. All the best.

where've I've seen that cockpit before? Great start Lyle, no worries about that Decal you'll hardly see it when the canopy is closed anyway!

Another Mustang kit, I presume? Join the party! Spritz the cockpit with a little clear flat while you're here!

Hi, Kari. Thanks. It broke apart coming off of the paper. Maybe I forced it...I don’t know. Anyway, I used what I could as it came apart it mainly good spots. Not much will be visible when it is closed up.
