Re: Model Kit Reviews

Here are the two decal sheets supplied with the kit.

The vehicle I'm building will have the large grey '411' decals applied. The numbers on the turret have to go over some pretty lumpy detail. This is the challenge I alluded to earlier. I thought I would back off and go with another option but I decided to attempt the harder option. Thinking about it for a few days, I explored the idea of painting the numbers of by hand or masking. The white edges on the numerals is very fine and I doubt I could mask well enough on such a surface so I'm going with the decals. What I will do is cut the numbers out individually. The area I'm talkin about here is shown in the second last pic on post number 15 above. I'm talking about over the vision slits forward of the turret hatches.
Thanks for bearing with me if you have.
Peace.
