Instrument panel is painted and decorated with decals without any will to be realistic: just to give some colors  :))
Then placed, cockpit closed and Gunze H305 airbrushed...

Good progress today.

First, I have painted the black and white parts on the tail.

Then I removed all the masks; made some minor corrections in the painting and airbrushed Pébéo gloss varnish.

After having letting dry a little bit, I have placed decals...

Thank you my friend!  :-red

Don't know if you have seen but cockades had a white outline that was disgracious. With paintbrushes (3/0 and 10/0) and Vallejo red, I have corrected the problem. See the photos; for each: "before" and "after"  :))
