just for change of pace....something different.
The logenze on the wing is the "old" deal which I applied over 10 years ago.
The sheets with the upper and lower Logenze in 1/16th scale are kindly produced by Richard of AVIATTIC on special request.
The colours are factory fresh and more fibrant.

The decals are with white back, not translucent. A must, since I will apply the new decals OVER the old.

Okay...will leave this to dry overnight.
Not easy to handle a big decal...!!

for the lozenge pattern's on the wings, I use this book from Robert C. Mikesh on restoring the albatros.
The lozenge decals from aviattic are spot on...!!

I will use Future floor polish to settle and seal the decal.

Continuing to be an absolutely brilliant build and then some! Are you going to skin the whole fuselage?
RAGIII

yes, I do have the intention to cover the whole fuselage. I am fully aware that it is going to be a handfull to work it out and make it look descent...specifically around the lower wing root and tail...🤔
