RICH W Posted March 4, 2011 Author Share Posted March 4, 2011 Hi thanks for the comments just received the replacement decal for the right side today from Drawdecal to save me having the same problem with maybe messing the decal up i decided to trim some of the lettering of to make it easier to apply the long decal heres a picture as far as i have got Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jaydeesan Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 ...started the right but i have messed the main decal up on this side, another one is on its way ... Did it fall apart on you by any chance? Cause it did on me (see my thread for pics)... ...i decided to trim some of the lettering of to make it easier to apply the long decal Did you do the whole thing in once piece at first/on the other side?! Either way, looks good, I wish I was done with the decals too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jaydeesan Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Oh and I forgot to ask - did you use any clear coat or decal film before applying the decals? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RICH W Posted March 5, 2011 Author Share Posted March 5, 2011 Oh and I forgot to ask - did you use any clear coat or decal film before applying the decals? no i did not use clear coat on the decal sheet before applying according to the instructions you dont need to ,on some of Gregs older decals you used to have to Did it fall apart on you by any chance? Cause it did on me (see my thread for pics)...Did you do the whole thing in once piece at first/on the other side?! Either way, looks good, I wish I was done with the decals too. :lol: No the decal did not break up on me i just got it all folded over and could not recover it On the left side i did that all in one piece didnt cut the decal Richard Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Big Kahuna Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 The decal scheme is quite amusing and entertaining. I'd get this scheme alone for this WOW factor. Good work on the model. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
