Masking is always a pain, but the result is pretty rewarding. Looking forward for the paint.

Looking forward to the next steps! I can imagine that masking must have been a pain…
But it turned out very well now. 👍🏼

I love airplanes in colorful paintwork - and your F-20 is definitely one of them.

Big disaster, the 27 year old decals are thin and brittle in lukewarm water 🙁

Don't worry! Use Microscale Liquid Decal Film.
It happened to me too, but that product was a little miracle.

Benoit, thank you very much for your support. I have already used TAMIYA MARK FIT STRONG and XTRADECAL parallel stripes assortment XPSA - but only with moderate success 🙁

Perhaps someone who still has the sheet could scan it for you so you could print it? There was a 2011 edition of the kit with the same scheme. That's perhaps a better chance than the 1994 release.

Keep my fingers crossed for that! And watching with interest, of course! You've done so much really good work so far, Olivier.

Isn't Mark Fit a softener where as Liquid Decal Film coats old decals with a fresh coat of film so as to keep them from crumbling?

Thanks mates , cutting the long decals in several small pieces was more sucessful on the right side of the fuselage.

That doesn't look so bad after all! It's good to see that you've pulled through! If there's any need for spare stripes: I bought some sheets with black stripes in different sizes from this German ebay-seller this year: https://ebay.de/usr/modelcars.de

This problematic model building project was completed today. The photos with the diorama base plate will follow next weekend, as long as the F-20 Tigershark is in a TRUMPETER acrylic showcase 🙂

Yesterday I took a few better photos, and I've uploaded another 10 of them. The project is now complete.

Your F-20 turned out very nice Olli! That was quite a piece of work after that decal mishap. Good you didn't give up on it. 👍🏼😃
