Easiest way to decal around holes etc is to slice the decal before soaking and apply one half first then the other and any adjustments can then be made. Whether it would work in that tiny scale is anybodies guess though I cannot see why it wouldn't with care.

That's what I used to do but since I am a bit of a clumsy bugger I left the legs off this time as I figured they would be too small to fix. :grin:

Going to call this done. The instructions had the drop tanks as 'optional' so I decided to go for the easy option. :grin: The tanks are in three parts and there are seven decals for each one! :ohmy

I decided to quit while my luck was holding.

...and of course, the ever popular 'size' shot.

A great little kit. The only place I had any problems was the undercarriage (but I have those whatever scale I work in :laugh: ). The decals were a dream to put on with only a minor trim needed on the top surface of the wings.

Many thanks to Revell for the review sample and a big thank you to Mark for passing it on so that I could enjoy this little gem.

By the way Mr Revell - if you feel like doing a bigger version of this I'd happily buy one. :grin:
