Beautiful work there! I had the same decal issues when I did the Mk. II and did the same thing as you did with the wing insignia. I am not sure how to blend it in or buy some new decals from Starship Modeller.
It's been a ridiculously long time since I posted anything in this topic but the Viper is now done and weathered so I thought I'd share some pics.... The canopy is still not stuck down. For some reason, I can't bring myself to do it. Maybe one day I'll put the pilot in....
I've just bought the new Revell re-release of the Galactica herself. Ought to be a bit of a challenge - gonna light her up and may or may not use the photoetch. Can't decide if I should spend the extra cash. That's coming soon!
