I love it when the decals go on a build.

You are marking quick work of that F-16 Tom. It seems to be building up just a typical Hasegawa kit

Be thankful that ejector post was on a flat surface , not on the concave side of a landing gear door

Ah... Those bottles are a bugger for that.
At least you didn't spill it on the Viper, which is looking excellent by the way.

Ahhhhh Bugger - I assumed you meant it had gone on the placement guide. Did you loose many?

No decals were soaked by Micro Set. Decal session is done. I’ll clearcoat it later tonight. This bird will be finished tomorrow for sure. All is left is install tail rudders and tail.

As the old Frank Sinatra song goes: Oh let's forget about domani, let's forget about domani, let's forget about domani, cause tomorrow never comes. I was on a roll and gained speed to get'er done. You know where to find her....
