I'm done with the decals. My theory is Big Decals, Big Problems! And these didn't disappoint. They look good now but too much work. I did the vertical stabs in pieces. Others better than me could do them in one piece but I erred on the side of caution. I'm ready for detail work now.

If lacquer thinner doesn't do it, I don't know what will.

I'm sure phantom & Kurt H will be along soon to greet you.

The Squadron Walk Around book has a good pic with the wing removed and it's pretty white in there!

Had I known that at the time, I wouldn't have gone through the extra steps. Oh well, no harm no foul.

This will be great for me to pay attention to as I have never built a WW1 plane either.

What do you propose I might have done wrong?

No problem now.

It is apropos though...........

The Kinetic F-16 has a strange looking nose area and it is much harder to build than Tamiya or Hasegawa. But it has great ordnance and many Block options.

Thanks Phantom. I can live with it now.

Okay, I've got her all shined up and ready for decals. Finally.

I'm the same age as Mstor. The older I get, the more optivisor lenses I buy at a higher power. I really like building great kits like GWH's F-15. This hobby has been geting better over the last 20 years with great after market parts and the like. "In for a penny, in for a pound". I will continue buying them and using them. Multi Media is what it's all about for me.

I'm with Mstor. I used the Quickboost seat. I didn't like the GWH exhausts but KA printed exhausts were not in business when I built that kit but I have seen them and they are BEAUTIFUL but expensive as I have said in the past. I would still buy them though.
