| Very nice work. Colors look good. And yes, it's hard to get a "proper" background. |

| May I rephrase that? It's difficult to match an actual background. Still not right, but it's a great model regardless of where the picture is taken. |

| thanks Don - it's funny but the whole time I was building that barn for my granddaughter I kept thinking I should build a hangar or line shack with a backdrop wall for my finished model photo's..I could find a suitable old poster of a farm or field and glue it up as a backdrop. But then I remember that I'm lazy |

| I understand completely. |

| It's not so much having the background credible, it's having it uncluttered. |

| true Dave - that would be a start. I still like the idea of a generic backdrop image though - just for S's and G's |

| I must say I am pleased with these decals! I was concerned about the white numbering on the red background but Josh at Bedlam assured me his decals would be opaque enough - dense enough - to cover without the red showing through. Also that they were easy to apply and took to both the setting solution I use and the clear coat with no problem. I can definitely recommend Bedlam Creations to anyone who wants to make a specific aircraft and who, like me, couldn't paint or create their own. |

| Thanks for the info on the decals. I remember painting the numbers and USN on the side. Decals would have been better.
On the picture background, the only one I got right was my B-17 |
