    First decal on, took several applications of Micro sol to get it to settle around the details and then some Klear over it !

    Some black on its tail, another decal, this went on a little better with a new bottle of Micro sol and some lights under its nose !

    This really looks fantastic so far. You have really put a lot of fine hard work into this build; I know it will be very impressive. Demonstrates pure modeling skills beyond just gluing some parts together. Love the Tiger stripes. This could be a real prize winner. Keep it coming along.
