Hi all,

I'm close to the point of clear coat or not to clear coat? as an amateur should I be considering it? if so can you show me a link to an easy way forward, the two .jpg files seem straight forward to me, although I'm thinking of not attaching my front suspension etc and clear coating more in parts rather than glued together at issue 77 time?

Decals
I've just read something about decals that mentioned Microset and Microsol? I want to get the decals to look right or it's ££££ down the drain and many hours of enjoyable modelling, so again is there a link to some good advice on applying decals?

Thanks in advance BigGrin
Mark

I would say don't try clear coating unless you are experienced in spraying models. It's very easy to mess up, and that would totally wreck your model.
