I used part of the kit supplied decal and just cut the registration numbers free. (the decal included the entire wing accent swirl) I then masked the center of the swirl using the registration as a guide - this left the red underlying the clear portions of the decal as you see here. |

I didn't want to use one decal and then have the other three panels painted. It would have looked odd...or odder..? than this. Once the semi-gloss clear goes on it should look a bit better yet |

at this point I have painted all but the spats..and I might just leave those as they are, all red. This has been a real challenge to paint and I got right to the middle of it when my family was dealt a real medical emergency. I'm not sure this is the best way to spend my time anymore. I need to take a hard look at it all. I will post pictures of the completed model in the next day or two. |

Thanks, David - our daughter in law had what turned out to be appendicitis - the surgery seems to have gone well. It was a rough 48 hours and lots of uncertainty. Not a lot of sleep for anyone here a few days but I think we’re out of the woods. |

Good to hear that your daughter-in -law is going to be OK. Given the talent already displayed, the Bull Dog will e too. |
