The spinner is impressive, is that decal or was it masked for painting? 🙂 I will guess that it was a paint job. I tried adding some decal for a spinner for a jet engine, and that just did not work out for me.

Thanks for the comments. It actually was a decal. Took me an hour to apply and position correctly. After primer and three coats of black acrylic (mission models), I polished the final black coat. Then light semi-gloss, decal, then another light semi-gloss. I'd say I was rather lucky than good on this one. I've had other spinner decals blow up on me, which required masking and painting.
