Good work, Joe. You are definitely in the home stretch with this one. Looking forward to the decals.
Cheers Tony. Yep, the tow bar was a surprise, and they made it fiddly to construct. I wasn't going to bother with it, but I already have enough left overs in my spares box
Cheers guys. Decals are indeed next.
That’s coming along very nicely indeed Joe
Cheers Ian.
Decals have been applied, and there were lots of them. It took me a whole day and even then I left off some tiny subtle ones, which to be perfectly honest I just couldn't be arsed with.
Must have been a Soviet thing, but the stencils were largely blue in colour, which makes them hard to see against the grey.
Trumpeter's decals were thin and settled down with very little solution required. There was however a few misprints of decal numbers in the instructions, leaving you to work out where they should go. They could have separated the stencil positions from the main scheme to help with that.
There were no rips or issues, other than attempting to get black strips to wrap around the missiles. I know for the future to paint them instead. I did some research and found the same missiles with no black bands, so I got out of jail there.
I'll add some photos later on.
