Started doing the decals. These colors will never look right by camera. They look much better in person. Tamiya's Flourescent decals are slightly brittle. Luckily I have 2 sheets.

A hot damp cloth helps them conform nicely. Solvent are too strong for Tamiya's decals. I only use solvents down in panel lines and where they wrap under fenders. Tamiya was good to put the colors over a white base, because they overlap with out making darker lines. Tamiya constantly shows that they want to help you make a nice model.

Yeah I know, the all white looks menacing, would not want to pull up to that thing.

The decals looked like fun :D:P It looks awsome and I can't wait for Saturday, those colors are bright!

Has anyone else built this car? If so, what brand and color of paint can be used to to touchup the green and orange areas? Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks, but I think I will be OK, I have 2 sheets of the main decals and I found some paint at the craft store for small touchups.
