Wise words and so true, George!
I will catch up in a week or two.
Take care, guys.

Pity for the paint pull-off, my friend @alfred. Definitely repairable, but frustrating. While keeping notes sounds awesome, it might not prove too practical to do in reality. Posting our progress here is kind of a notebook that we can go through.
Have a great vacation!

Welcome back, my friend @alfred! So nice that you were on vacation. Looking forward to your updates!

Back at the workbench again.

I finished the green accents on both nose and wing tips. Also made a start with the application of the aftermarket decals for this specific Soesterberg Wolfhounds fighter.

Note the fighter’s “buzz number” FU-384 is partially placed over the temporary closed air brake. The plan is to first seal the decal with layer of Future and then carefully cut the decal with a fresh scalpel alongside the air brake seams and eventually open the air brake again. Wish me luck. 🍀

Thanks, John. No guarantees however. Hope it will work out fine. 🤔

Looks great, Alfred (@alfred). Slicing will be a great trick. Looking forward to seeing the results.
