Thanks.
I've sized the decals in a document, now to do battle with the printer....

Well, in the end I was wrong. Although the decals printed horribly, against the corrugated skin they look alright.
Done and dusted. Better pics to come later.

I decided to go for a bit of poetic license and put the front cowl on, despite it being absent in the only shot I have of it:

Re: VV's Bolivian "Tante Ju" **Finished**
Very nice indeed. The pics make the wingspan look enormous
Enjoyment over accuracy. That's my motto

Re: VV's Bolivian "Tante Ju" **Finished**
Thanks, gents. Appreciate the compliments.
Toby, it definitely does hey. Partially because of the profile of the wings themselves (long and tapering) and partly due to the space I have photographed it in. It is quite a large model though. I'm now struggling to find display space for it.
