Paul, great looking Meteor. I hate to hear you had to fight the decals but it looks like you are beating them into submission.
Best wishes,
Ian

Decals look good from here fella. If I have issues with silvering , once the decal is fully dry I run a new very sharp blade along the panel lines then soak in Sol |

Thanks for tips chaps, but the silvering seems to have died away . Must have been the micro set and sol that did it . Anyway the stickers are on, not all of them. I skipped about 50% of the stenciling . A Flory is on next will be matt then I'll paint the landing gear and bays, exhausts and a few other little bits .  |

Many thanks for the kind words chaps , and my apologies for keeping you waiting . Well towards the end this became a tad annoying , I removed the glazing masks and the windscreen cracked  . After getting some Humbrol Clear on the canopy, it up a load of mini pot wholes on both sides  . I thought it just air bubbles first from the clear, but they wouldn't go. Anyway I went over several times with clear and it has sort of helped, but it ain't perfick. Well it's been matted and the final small paint jobs have been done , so here you go.        Thanks for watching chaps, tally ho . |
