Hello Guys,

I'm just adding my Airfix 1/72 Douglas -47 Skytrain into the Air gallery section. This was one of my entries into the D-Day 70th Anniversary GB wherein the build thread and YouTube videos were included in that thread.

Well done my friend!
The kit looks really good for an airfix kit. I really like the paint job and how the decals are set in to those panel lines! Nice job!

Thanks mate, appreciate you commenting. I use Walthers Decal Setting Solution, and while it's still setting, I carefully press the decals into the panel lines then when I apply the panel line wash, the wash sits nicely into the recesses within the decal areas.
