Well after struggling through the decal process for a few days and dealing with frustration on that front, I got a final assembly done. It didn't turn out that bad for my 2nd build after getting back to the hobby. I really enjoyed this one though. I have a couple pics to share, just need to finish some final touch ups, maybe window detailing (undecided since I want to get to my next build) and a shot of clear to finish it up. I'd do this one again definitely with A LOT more focus on everything before paint and assembly. But, a learning lesson to say the least.

So, I'll tinker with it a bit more but onto the next project. I can't wait to get into airbrushing more now. Hand painting was a task lol.
