popeye the sailor Posted June 26, 2020 Share #122 Posted June 26, 2020 the seafire came out super OC. there is a difference in the type of decals used.......I've found this with different model companies. some supply a thicker decal......some decals have a form of flashing around them, and some are thin. I was over at Pheon decals, looking over some of their information / directions, and they suggest not using some of the decal solutions available. some are too strong and will tend to melt and distort the decal. it's probably best to test them first mtaylor, Canute, Edwardkenway and 1 other 4 Quote I yam wot I yam! finished builds: Billings Nordkap 476 / Billings Cux 87 / Billings Mary Ann / Billings AmericA - reissue Billings Regina - bashed into the Susan A / Andrea Gail 1:20 - semi scratch w/ Billing instructions M&M Fun Ship - semi scratch build / Gundalow - scratch build / Jeanne D'Arc - Heller Phylly C & Denny-Zen - the Lobsie twins - bashed & semi scratch dual build Billing T78 Norden in dry dock: Billing's Gothenborg 1:100 / Billing's Boulogne Etaples 1:20 Billing's Half Moon 1:40 - some scratch required Revell U.S.S.
