| You dont know what you’re missing lol |

| Oh yes, I do. Do you have an address for the Marquis de Sade? |

| $.02 worth (who pays who?) _ the ones I got from Callie-Graphics were pretty good, not as easy to place as waterslide decals and both are easier than painting everything. :) |

| David, you mean my other mentor..?
I know purists hate the peelie stickies - I even emailed Dumas to ask "Really??!" and "WHY?!" But I used them anyway A) because I wanted to model Lowell Bayles' mount and B) because I try to use the kit provided materials whenever possible.
And I have been impressed by their quality for the most part. Sure they're a bit thick (like me) but they go on easy and clean and once they are under the clear coat you cant really tell the difference unless you look for it. |

| No complaints about the quality but they are thick, I rarely clear coat, and they are a pain in the ass to cut out. As this will not be painted as the one and only Z model, I don't feel any obligation to duplicate it, which means I have no intention of painting all the small details on the real plane. |

| ah..yes - the clear coat over the top is critical for these stickers to pass muster at all..

| Beautiful job, DD. I'm still in the process of infilling the Mustang. It's taking me a bit longer than anticipated due to my working schedules and family obligations. |
