Welcome aboard Ekki and Roland! The kit has some interesting decal options (if i would have wanted to paint one in nmf, i would have gone for the french airforce machine with scratched away british insignia, that are still partly visible...) and is a nice and quick build. I got it as a birthday present by my little brother some years ago and so i am glad i finally manage to build it.

Applied the decals today. Very thin and very quick to apply once they touch water. Sadly the smaller ones really started to silver on the dark base color. Will have to see what i can about that. Sadly damaged some while trying to fight the silvering. :\

Finished the vampire. Happy with this little build, however next time i really need to do something about the silvering decals. Also, i trusted the manual (should never do this...) so it has become a little tailsitter. I will fix this, by building a small wood base and glueing it to it.
