MiG-17 decals

Ohhh.  More MiG-17 decals.  I have not heard of Model Maker decals before.

Nice

I am David and I have a decal problem.

P-38 decals

Here.

RA-5C

I like the RA-5C.  These decals look nice.

I need more decals….

like I need a hole in my head.

But, I like these,

and these,

and these, too.

Yes, I admit it.  I need help.

Su-25 decals

I like Su-25s and I like decals.  Combine the two.  What is not to like?

Oh baby!

This decal sheet was meant to go straight into my veins. (h/t to Jim Bates for the pointer)

Another decal sheet

I need another decal sheet like I need a hole in my head.  Yet, I think I’m going to have to pick this one up.  I am a sucker for P-51s in ANG markings and in smaller air forces markings.

Thankless modeling tasks

The thing I hate most in aircraft modeling is masking canopies.  Thankfully, technological development has eliminated that hassle, due to pre-cut canopy masks.  One of the other real pains in the but when modeling is dealing with long thin decals, such as stripes or lines.  Their tendency to fold and kink and misbehave is endlessly frustrating.  However, you can’t always avoid subjects with such markings.  In those cases, my preferred solution is to cut the decal and ally it in sections.  This isn’t ideal as you then have the challenge to matching and mating the sections back together on the model.  However, it is still better than other alternatives.  I am dealing with this challenge on the Ohka.  I started applying the stripes last night.  Hopefully I’ll get the entire stripe on soon.

Decal stripes

I want this

Hi. I am David and I am a decalholic. (crowd:”Hi, David”)

If you haven’t ever used any Starfighter decals, I recommend them.

Here is the latest, and I want it bad.
