much thanks for the comments! good luck to those who really want to try this out! i shall finish the overwing exit doors and engine noise absorbing panels hopefully today. i just got to say that these do-it yourself decals behave a bit differently than regular decals that are thermal or silkscreen printed.

Does the Hogan version have details that come close to this? I have the collectors edition but can't be bothered to go upstairs and unlock my model room and take it out.

no worries. ive already thought all this out before embarking on this project if it should ever need to get shipped. the only i worry about is these decals yellowing over time. which if it does i suppose i can just scratch them off and buff out the residue with some alcohol.
hogans mold is overall more accurate as randy said on the wings (no corroguard) but as far as details go, mine wins.

it was hard since it was my first time at this but i made them myself. we shall see if these stand the test of time and the "weather" inside my display case and apartment haha.
