RA-5C Vigilante "Fleur de Lis"

Roman Gmünder
Ran into problems making my own decals (first time). Used the HOLI Decalpaper (both white and clear) and my HP inkjet with HP ink and microscales liquid decal film. There appeard a redish "glow arround the black lines (no matter on white or clear decal film) after adding quite an amount of micro sol when applying the decals (since the decal film is rather thick). Now what was my mistake you suppose? Wrong ink, too thin coat of liquid decal film or excessive amount of microsol? Thanks for your help. Regards.

Finished the bird with the wings folded and the size is still impressive. As mentioned i made first experience with making my own decals. I like the sleek lines of this jet. And am amazed there aren't more being on display.

Your Vigilante looks great, congratulations! Could you please give some information about the internal brace from Nautilus, is it worth buying?

very nice, I would be interested in hearing about the brace too

Thanks. I think the brace is not a must. I stumbled over it when i was looking for their carrierdeck which i think its great and since i heard that you had to brace the huge body of this plane i thougt it would come handy and it did. It is designed for the aires burner cans which i wasn't able to get. So i had to modify the kit cans, which was easy to do, though. If you have specific questions feel free to ask. So long.

Thank you for the information! I just ordered the Nautilus set, hopefully my Bird will turn out as beautiful as yours.
