ixgr1 Posted April 15, 2011 Author Share Posted April 15, 2011 Thanks guys - The decals are now bedding down nicely, with a generous supply of our version of "future". Now I can get back to the Build. I am glad that by pure fluke I have modeled the ex-Tiger bird.....love that ! As regards the Decals, they do apper to be too dark I know. Some of the decals were captured off the internet and then printed, on decal film, at home. When printed they appered to be the right lighter shade, but not so on the kit........I suppose I could try to alter the colour ? and do a re-print ? But they may not stand out clearly on the weathered paint job -maybe I can just lighten them on the kit ....... ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ixgr1 Posted April 21, 2011 Author Share Posted April 21, 2011 (edited) ......and then he realised: the transparent decal sheet dosen't have a white backing !!!!! -anyhow, here she is. After replacing the upper wing decals and substituting the 'Canada' pennant for the one provided by Mr Charlie Cheetah Here is the magnificent Sniper pod fom Mr S.Hull, in place Also the majority of the Canadian mod's. and finaly a French themed Operation Unified Protector shot. - I particualy like the 'connections' here Hope you like.......

Yeah, we have our share of potholes here. They normally start patching them up about now but this winter was exceptionally bad with record snowfalls, so its gonna take a bit longer to fix em all. You should see the mall parking lot where I work, I've heard a few customers comparing it to the streets of Tripoli. edit: Sorry, I just realized by case, you meant a 24. We call a 12 pack a case.

Yeah I noticed that there is not much of a selection of 24's..... bought some Sleeman draught. Funny thing they call 24 beers flats out west same country different dialect eh!!! Tripoli.... I hit a pothole trying to avoid one..... this is called highway denial. (instead of runway denial) it's like cluster bombs were dropped all over. Emil Quote Link to post Share on other sites
