Re: WIP Flying LIzard Porsche
Hi Guys, Started the decals this weekend,as there is no decal guide it,s pretty slow work as each decal has to join up to the next and my only reference are the photo,s I have. The decals themselves are fairly thick and require a strong softner( DACO strong in this case) and also a couple were "cracked" on the backing paper. Another few days should have them all on.
Regards,Alexp.

Re: WIP Flying LIzard Porsche
Wow!! I dig the scheme on this one.
Since the decals have proven to be a problem, did you consider to just paint them?
OK, OK, just kidding, but looks great, I admire your persistence.

Chris
