I finished decaling the 'H-liner'
I managed to use some dry transfers from CDS for the numbers. They seemed to be the closest match in color. I hope with a little weathering they'll blend in. I also removed the masking tape from the fan screens. It's starting to look like a completed engine now.
The pilot and front nose decals were the most difficult. They are both one piece so I had to trim the pilot decal to clear the coupler buffer and make sure they were centered.
I gave the shell it's final sealing coat of dulcote tonight, now it's time to start reassembling.
