SPA Modeler

Everything allright Bruce. Your words are welcome.
Let's see what will happen here....

Good. I was worried. I have read that it is possible to use a few drops (4-5) of grey or buff paint mixed with clear to tone down the look of the decals, but I would imagine the emulsion/transfer lines that yellowed over the years would still be visible. Just a thought. That's all. Just a thought. I really like the way this is coming along, though! Each plane you finish becomes the new favorite—I would be hard-pressed to choose which ones should go to the front of the cabinet. Have you chosen the prime selects yet?

Link to displays for ships, but very good points about lighting are here.

Bruce, I am gonna answer tomorrow.
Here is a small update including self-made missiles.

All this looks fantastic! Way to go on the self-made missiles. That's far beyond what I would do; but then again, I haven't got your skill set.

As for the yellowed decals: you could place the model in a window where it gets a lot of sun. That should bleach out the yellow. Usually it's best to do that before applying the decals. I have a decal sheet currently sitting under the sun to bleach it out. I've heard it still works when they are on the model too.

Duke, that's a great idea: put her into UV-light! I'll Hey that.
And to tell the truth, I am just a man trying his best.
My skills are not that good. The pictures cover my mistakes. And I am pretty sure you are doing the same. Be proud of your work.

Bruce, one guy from prototype shop at the company I work for turned the bodies of steel wire. The guidence components were cut of plastic sheet with thickness 0.3 mm. Made a master and transfered it 30 times to sheet. Positioning without gauge.

Thanks.
Two days left to finish. Hard to fullfill that requirement.
