Thanks guys that means a lot!

I started adding decals as I could today when my daughter would allow me to lol. My biggest problem was the mouths I didn't realize they weren't connected so it was a surprise when I went to slide the first one on and the top and bottom went separate ways ugh. I repaired it ok but the other side went way out of wack, I think I got it so it's hard to tell, I'll include a picture of it next time.

Its finished! A very nice kit most of the problems I mentioned were because of me and not really the kit. I didn't put a fair amount of the small decals on mostly because my eyes and fingers don't like them lol.

Turned out great, Piper. To be honest, I kind of miss the days of hand painting. Camoflauging took some creativity. Must be my inner child. With ABing, masks, future, washes, etc.....it's more of a process. Still fun, just different I guess.

Nice job especially impressive since it's hand painted. This one's on my bucket list.
