My GOD now that is how Yamato should've done the GBP v2.0.

Kurt should be working for them.

Well...can't decide to take it as encouragement while working on mine, or a sign to give up :lol: I'm doing the normal GBP right now... and the decals are killing me. Small white decals on white backing = Ben going blind. That and the shear volume of them.

I notice that you've got a little bit of decal edging showing on your legart Kurt... when you applied that large decal, did you use a decal setting solution to help conform to the curve? I'm using PolyScale Decal solvent (the stronger one) and my decal is still ending up a bit wrinkly.... (mainly cuz it's a whole circle over the curve...) I figure that once the third coat of solvent dries, a coat of Future will smooth it enough....

hey kurt, do you customize valk for people too? i have noticed that you do a fine job at it. if you do, can you please let me know? i am interested in converting a regular 1/48 vf1-s to a low viz. kyatsu :D

Nice! I'd prefer it without the camo though, since this is an Enigma scheme.

Thanks everyone for the compliments. The weathering process sometimes will make the decal edges more pronounced. I use Microscale decal solutions.

Haha, lucky you. Thanks for the advice. After checking it this morning, the decal shrunk down a tad and smoothed out nicely after two coats of Solvent and a coat of Future. I know all too well that weateheirng can mark the edges of decals. On my CF, one of the leg decals is basically black-line outlined. :lol:
