Nice cockpit details in this kit. This is after they've been glossed with Tamiya X22 and Mr Color Leveling Thinner ready for a wash

Blu-tac removed

I then put blu-tac over the blue and sprayed the green. I'm not at all happy with the result

July 28, 2020
My blu-tac method needs more practice. I don't like a lot of the edges

Plus I think the green is too dark. I need to figure out how I'm going to go about fixing this

Mixed some lighter green and resprayed after remasking

Decals starting to go on after a couple of coats of X22 and Mr Color Leveling Thinner

The decals are really thin so they need to be handled with caution bur it means they're settling in to the panel lines really nicely with some Microsol

Great Spit. I feel your pain with the blu-tack method, not as easy as it looks first time. I did exactly the same with my Wellington. But your final result is fabulous so well worth the effort. 👍
