Tail rudder painted yellow prior to decaling. This consists of 3 decals per side - checkered decal go on first, then cobra head and finally the silver bar across the cobra. I spent a total of 45 minutes on the tail rudder alone.

That is one sharp looking F1C Tom! 
Those tail markings really make this aircraft stand out. How did you like using the Syhart decals?

I like them, Carlos. Thin, durable & it doesn't tear easily. I've got a few other Syhart decal sets in my stash.

Superb work Tom - it looks great in those markings.
I really do like the F1, what a great looking aircraft.

Wow. Thank you for the kind words. When I first found this decal scheme, I had to have it. Thank you again for the comments.
