Default Virgin Atlantic 707

This is a fantasy model (before some of you guys have a stroke and start complaining about the engines, etc...). I had some extra time and wanted a Virgin 707.

Question

Hey Ramon,
what do you think about eztoys decals? I mean to get the result as nice as your job? I'm planning to get their Iberia airbus.

My opininon is going to be biased since I made those decals. I would be more than happy to help you with any questions you might have. It is important to be very careful when handling the decals since they sometimes break if you do not handle them properly.

Hey Ramon,

Do you just apply the decal to the model and that's it or do you have to put on some kind of application afterward to prevent it from peeling?
I am interested in the Alitalia 767 decals.

Thanks,

Tom

I first apply Testors decal set to the surface where I am going to apply the decal. Once it is dry I apply coat of Krylon Acrylic to keep the decals from turning yellow.

I used adobe photoshop to superimpose my terminal in front of the Kai Tak background. It only took me approx 5 mins to do this one.
