Yes. I think, typically, but me not being an expert on this subject matter, it seems to me that aftermarket decals might have lower printing quality.

Cartograf is known for manufacturing very good decals. I can't think of any other that make as good decals.

Btw, Eduard sometimes sell scale model kits that explicitly does not contain decals. I think they are called "Overtrees". These are just the plastic parts, maybe surplus items?

I spent a couple of hours cleaning up some parts that I cut of the frame

These curbside chassis, really upset me. Just like the Volvo VN. If the manufacturer, went to the trouble, of making an engine, and separate frame parts, with other kits, then why would they cheap out, on kits like these? I love what you're doing with this though. Keep the pictures coming, buddy 👍

I didn't put up pictures of all the cutting and sanding. A summary:
All parts are cut, sanded and glued where possible. Only a few drops of filler were needed.
The cab consists of 10 parts that need to be positioned just right. **** job, but I think I managed.
Next up: Primer.

pato05 - you have decided do not open pilots doors? Why? Your work is amazing 🙂

pato05
Kon_Bar - Thank you very much. I was thinking about cutting the pilots door, but then I decided not to and make my work a bit easier. The problem is, that the doors would be too thick and would look unrealistic (like heavy armoured door from a tank). Hobby Boss makes very clear parts, so I think the interior will be quite visible anyway. The back doors will be of course open 🙂

I am amazed at your painting skills ! Do you use a microscope ?

pato05
Many thanks. Olly - I don't use microscope - just a really fine and sharp brush. All painted with Vallejo paints on brush and finished with Light Grey and Medium Grey wash from Ammo Of Mig Jimenez.
