Pfffttt.... who's got time to wait for Xtracolor paint to dry?

Re: Heller 1/48 Etendard IV M
I do… no rush for me at this point. And I will add that since the colors are gloss, no gloss coat is needed before applying the decals.

Looks really good.

Oooohhh...pretty! Looks great.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Oh my... she's gonna be a looker for sure. Kinda reminds me of the Mirage in some ways.

If you can't fix it with duct tape, you're not using enough duct tape.

Re: Heller 1/48 Etendard IV M
Thanks guys!
Tom, it sure does have some resemblance to the Mirage design, especially around the cockpit, intakes, and tail.
CB, the Xtracolor dried within several hours…
I just waited overnight to apply the decals. 
With all the stencils, that did take a few hours. But Heller did make some very nice decals for the most part.
