Thumbs up Re: Goldhofer AST-1 Airport Tug 1/200

Decals for fine panel lines and solid windows (all mid-grey à la Hogan/Gemini) would be nice. Maybe you want to find someone with an ALPS printer? The detail at small size is absolutely fantastic! 'Vector-based' art is the way to go . . . no JPEGs.

I know I would like a few with Air France markings, but I have those decals already made for a customization of a Herpa one. The rest of the unit would be basically white.

As far as beacons and mirrors are concerned, best to leave those to the detailists to do (with photo-etch scraps). We don't need something that looks like a child's toy with oversized features.

Good luck with your tinkering and DO keep the updates coming! You've certainly got MY interest big-time with this.
