Thanks everyone.
I worked in a methodical manner with the decals.
I applied the fuselage spine decal first then worked my way outwards from there.

I agree, the gold winner must have been something to beat this little masterpiece. Still, silver is not to be sniffed at and is certainly better than a poke in the eye with a dirty stick! Well done, Mike.
