It'll be worth the work!

I keep slowly plodding along with the Orion. Cleaning up joins and seams. I'll probably get this to the point of priming and then it'll sit till the Caracal Decals set eventually comes out.

That’s a lot of extra work to put in I know but good on ya.
As to waiting for decals- I hate that. I want it all right now, I dislike the waiting part, bad enough we have to wait for shipping.

These were supposed to be out already but they kept getting pushed back. Sounds like 3-4 months before they come out now.

Yeah I know the feeling. Don’t like starting a project until all needed items are present. Now if things go sideways during the project, that’s another matter…

Same here. I thought for sure that they'd be out by now.

That is a bummer but great work none the less.
Can you start painting yet, or are you going to wait for the decals?

I'm going to wait for the decals. There's going to be a lot of options in it.

That's fair enough then Mike, probably a good idea.
