Very nice finishes Cherry. Do you decal right on to the metal paint? Or do you use a gloss clear coat?

thanks nathan, you know the problem and you are right, I used micro sol decal softer, and sealed the whole model with Mr. Metal Primer, so you loose some chrome effect but it is better for handling and save the decals

Really nice collection of Sabres.
And of course, I like the Sabre Dogs in particular.

Those are a nice batch of F-86s indeed!
