    Decal setting solutions

    To those with experience with this stuff, what's the way to go? I'm about to make an order for supplies (hopefully tomorrow if I get good feedback on this), and seeing as I'll need this for my B-58, and some others coming up, what's good? I'm using the RoG kit decals for the Hustler, and for my others, I'll be using the kit decals for the Academy, Hasegawa, Tamiya and Monogram kits; additionally, I'll be using decals from aeromaster, eagle strike, impact decals, and twobobs. I understand that decals vary in thickness, hence why I've mentioned what I'll be using. Advice is welcomed!

    With that said, I'm off to bed :-D

    TIA,

    Cheers!

    WHAT A DELAY! It just dawned on me today that the hustler has been rather.....forgotten more or less (seeing as the last time I wrote something was 2 months ago...); but between getting the house ready for my wifes return from her deployment and her actual return, MW2 map pack and the new Splinter Cell release, I've been rather busy..... But now that things are back to normal, I'm back on track with the Hustler. I've gotten the cockpit mostly finished, and I'll post pictures of that here NLT week's end. Got a new work desk for my modelling, which will help greatly (way better than the makeshift one I've been using for the last year). I'll spend tomorrow morning fitting and drilling it for prep as a workstation, and then back to work full swing on the hustler. YAY!

    On the hustler, I've decided to go gear up - I'm planning on hanging it from the ceilling when finished; so seeing how I don't like my "flying" aircraft to have their gear down while "flying" (seriously, who flies around with their gear down all the time?), I figured that was the best way to go. Hopefully, if I get this knocked out in time (end of the week, or first part of next week at the latest, I hope....), I can get started on that A-6E. So we'll see......

    More to come! Cheers!

    P.S. Ryan, thanks for the bumps :woot.gif:
