So I did a little experiment. These are obviously too small to do the whole decal process. So with that Tomcat in the pic (which has busted gear so it won't be going on the carrier) I added three decals without a gloss coat. Then after they dried, brushed on a little flat. Perfect! Can't see any decal borders or silvering. :shoutout: :shoutout:

Not to sound facetious, but are you going to try to paint the framing? Or just leave them as this one is now? I know that in that scale this photo is bigger than the actual plane, and the framing must be a hair in width.
