How in the world did you cut those numbers so cleanly.  What and awesome build!

 

Thank you... Only need a very sharp knife and slowly cutting patiently...

Thats a very good looking model.

I got my Tu Af decals from an outfit called Tourquoise Decals.

She'll look good next to a 190.

 

Thx... Yes i agree with you, F190 A3 will be next one

Wow! That looks fantastic! I have to agree the 5514 turned out great! Nice masking job! Is this all OOB? Or did you add some aftermarket pieces? I'm just about to start the same kit.

 

I used only Eduard seat belts. OOB Tamiya or Airfix Mk.Vb can be TuAF, no need any modification. Thx a lot.

Another great job there in progress! I've tried masking off numbers and insignia like that but always get some leakage and it ends up being a mess, yours looks perfect.
