Actually, no, but I was able to get a good scan any way, so it’s good.

My worst nightmare but hopefully I can avoid that. I don't build too many old kits and usually replace my decals with aftermarket.

Yep, me to. I really don’t like buying aftermarket decals, if the kit decals work. I’m cheap. But, when the a/m stuff is unusable, that adds an ebtirely new level of frustration.
I had scanned them and cut the tail piece, applied it and it was over 1/8” too big.

Re: Revell 1/72 F-102A - a real oldie **Completed**
For what it is worth, calling this one done. Makes four for the year. Not a bad kit for the age - not much of any detail. I did wimp out on the decals. The last set I bought...I did not think to check the color schemes of the aircraft they were for. Dumb, rookie mistake. So, now I have a set of Starfighter Decals 1/72 F-102A decals...if anyone is interested. Ended up fining a picture on the electric entrynet of a machine so I could at least get a valid tail code.
