Hi Scott Don't do the carbon in one piece as if you look at real pics they are made up of layers and sections to bring strength to the arms.. Warthog attached the following image(s):

Depends what you mean by the rest of the model Austin.. The Nose ones are available from Ebay or Hiroboy but i'm not aware that anyone has done the full body decal yet.. I would just stick to the carbon if your going to do it as i have 3 to do so if I mess up at least I have back-up.. Have a look through this post from page 1 and you should see links to decals etc..

Well your spraying the nose and using new decals so when you come to spray the other parts of the model, what decals are you going to use?

Really, well that surprises me, your a brave man warthog. Mind you I think it's strange for a company to make just the nose cone decals. You'd think they would do the whole thing.

They are doing them but as they will not be needed for at least another 4 month at the very least, I would say they want to get them right..
