The JT Graphics decals came today!

Here they are with the HDA decals I got a little while ago.

I have choices now!

Well it's 2020 and in the words of Spock "I am a fool".

So I messed up the decals. The JT Graphics decals are very fine and thin, and they react very nicely with setting solution.

I hit the side registry decals with the setting solution, for no real reason, before they were in the correct position.

The bottom line, new decals are on the way!

I took the opportunity to dress up the back of my previous/OOtB build.

While waiting for the decals, I finished construction on the Columbus.

The Landing gear is on.

The Columbus is in a bit of trouble looking for the Galileo!

Hmm, all the decals look straight to me. Nice work! 

And the difference between the original kit and the upgrade in the second photo is a BIG improvement. 

Thanks!

They don't look bad in the photo's but they need to be re done.

I got the new decals on the Columbus today. I'm going to call this done.

I changed the designation of the Columbus from 2 to 3. On another forum, the person who did decals for the new kit posted the original Desilu decal sheet for the filming miniature. It showed the names "Galileo" and "Columbus", the numbers 3 and 7 were the only designation numbers on it.

I know the in the remastered version of "Journey To Babel" the Columbus is shown in the background as 2, but I think the original decal sheet is more "correct".

Here it is next to the OOTB build I did in April.

Thanks for following my build.

Oh cool! Nice to see them together!!!
