Things didn't go well with my first attempt at the Matchbox Vickers Wellesley. Construction was okay, but the decals couldn't be revived from their ancient state even with slatherings of Micro Superfilm and varnish. They insisted on suicide.
What's left of the starboard roundel after carving it off.
The port wing walkway markings weren't much better than this even
before scrubbing them away.
So let's strip the paint soon. But what markings? Hmmm, there were two different ones with the Airfix Fairey Battle...
Belgian might look good!
