Response to 109 Decals.......................I give up!
If you haven't used setting solution on them, gently peel them off and get an aftermarket set... or if you have them raid the spares box....

What scale is the model?

Besides, Trumpeter's kits are forever, and entirely...entirely!.... too expensive, and are nothing like perfect either...

.....you've apparently (from the photos) done a beautiful finish job on the model, if the paints are enamels, they'll take a good soaking in warm water to get them off, if not, then try some scotch transparent tape (the frosted kind) directly on the decal... if that doesn't work try masking tape... avoid the painted areas as much as possible.

Sure it's a lot of work, but treat it like it's getting personal...

With me, I'd be determined, even if it turns out less than perfect, to beat the wretched thing.

HyperScale's Group Build Guidelines

The objective of this Group Build is to encourage as many modellers as possible to build their kits and share their progress via words and photos on this Forum.

You are welcome to post general construction tips or relevant reference information and photos to this Forum too.

This Group Build will feature Airfix kits.

  1. Build as many kits as you like

  2. Conversions, aftermarket and scratchbuilding are all permitted.

  3. Any markings are acceptable.

  4. Document your progress and do a write-up on your build - where did you have trouble, what improvements did you make, what markings did you choose and why? It would be GREAT if everyone would do a writeup and submit it to HyperScale as a Feature Article.
