A big chunk of decals were added last weekend which included the VF-114 Aardvark schemes
VF-161 decals were also worked up as black decals on white decal paper and then blended in. Black trim still to be done by hand
The last 3 aircraft which needed decals. VF-31, VMFA-333 and VF-213. The Light reflecting doesn't help
You can just see that the VMFA-333 decal is too big
Quite happy with how the Black Lion came out. I am beginning to like GIMP but like most things I don't set and play with it enough so there are probably a lot of short cuts or better way to do things. That said the support network is excellent
So with the last steps on the main decals nearly over, it then remains to go back and check each aircraft in turn and fix decals that have fallen off due to rough handling and add the warning triangles to the fronts. A couple also need new Modex numbers as well as for some reason the ones I printed out on one of the jobs are too small. Then it will be a varnish session to seal everything together and then matt things back down (but as these are gaming models that last step may never get done)
