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 ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

Thanks for tips chaps, but the silvering seems to have died away ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) . Must have been the micro set and sol that did it ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) . Anyway the stickers are on, not all of them. I skipped about 50% of the stenciling ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) . A Flory is on next will be matt then I'll paint the landing gear and bays, exhausts and a few other little bits ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) . ![](https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1876/43999137764_2ab246978f_c.jpg)

Many thanks for the kind words chaps ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) , and my apologies for keeping you waiting ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) . Well towards the end this became a tad annoying ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) , I removed the glazing masks and the windscreen cracked ![;-|](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/squint.png) . After getting some Humbrol Clear on the canopy, it up a load of mini pot wholes on both sides ![>:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/superangry.png) . 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 ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) , so here you go. ![](https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1903/30052168277_b4e2863489_c.jpg) ![](https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1953/31115381138_4bf4234aeb_c.jpg) ![](https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1921/44076668145_903c01d844_c.jpg) ![](https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1923/44987991211_377921be33_c.jpg) ![](https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1974/30052165097_10f2e8f558_c.jpg) ![](https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1908/44268970334_c1d6f12a81_c.jpg) ![](https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1940/44987985661_7144cdb6e4_c.jpg) Thanks for watching chaps, tally ho ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) .
