I used Montex Masks MXMM24013 for this kit. Came out brilliantly. Well worth the price of £9.30 from Hannants. The decals from the kit are the wrong colour and should be grey, not white. So you can correct this mistake when you paint them.They also come with the canopy masks. I use MM's for most of my kits now and have done for a number of years as they negate the use of decals solutions etc.
They sound cool but I like to make my own masks if I can as it gives me the freedom to make anything I like, within reason. Indeed the kit decals aren't all that good.
@@RichardsModellingAdventures Yes, nothing beats doing it yourself as you aren't limited. But for those on a budget, the mask sets are a far better alternative to the kit decals. I've also found that if you are careful, they can be re-used a few times too. Great for national insignias if you have more than one kit of a certain subject. The masks usually have 2 marking options with them and there are also alternatives to the kit option , too. I am planning on using MXK24044 as an alternative to the Mk.IIC decals, a colouful SAAF OTU scheme., when I get round to building it.
👌👍

Looks great Richard. Have you tried kabuki tape paper on your Cricut? I'd be a bit worried that vinyl can be pulled out of shape when put down.
Not as yet. I’ll put it on my to do list 👍😀The vinyl I’m using has been fine so far if used with transfer tape
@@RichardsModellingAdventures That's good to hear
I’ll never understand why the military chooses to paint bullseyes on the weaponry.
So true 👍😀
