I've got a heavy teaching load right now, so I haven't had much time at the model desk. Add to that the $%^$#@ decals that came with this kit and progress has been slow.
The yellow stripes were just too ^%&%$ fragile to apply, so I had to use some decal sheet cut to width, and work my way around. Then the buzz numbers were transluscent, so they sort of look greenish yellow beside the stripes. Sigh.
The plan is to carefully hand paint over those when i find a yellow to match. The "B17 on the wing upper is actually
two decals on top of each other - and it still doesn't look solid.
And of course the white in the national insignia was transluscent as well as being non-standard sizes. At least they were easy to replace with homemade versions.
I hope you all realise that I'm doing this so that Trumpter will release a brand new kit of this impressive beast. Taking one for the team here.
