Decals are so hit and miss. You never know what you're going to get even with the same brand.

A small update...I think all the decals specific to this particular a/c are on. Now for the common items. Yippee.

I can see why you had issues with the nose decal - that's one hell of a compound curve to settle down on...

Looking great Lyle. Give that decal a slice and soak it in setting solution again.
Thanks,

Amazing work Lyle! Wow, you are nailing this exceptionally well! That is even better than the one I did.
