That's very nice indeed. I got Nick Webb's decal sheet at Telford and hope I'll do an at least half decent job with it on my DC-4. What corrections did you make?

Hi Joe
None really - apart from adding a DF loop/fairing to the underside of the nose. 'OR had one in that position and Minicraft don't supply one in the box. I found a spare one from a Welsh Model's Argonaut that I never finished.

Nice work Eric.
I really admire anyone that can achieve the different shades and tones on metalwork, well done.
