Looks great Ben. How did you like working with the Model Alliance (MA) decals? I have some MA decals that I am planning on using in my current project, any tips to pass on?

Thanks John. They're pretty good, maybe a bit thick but at least that means you can handle them easily. I also thought the white areas were a little transparent, but actually on the model it looks fine.
I wet the area with Micro Set before placing them then gently removed as much liquid as I could with a cotton bud and gave it a few coats of Micro Sol - they puckered up a lot, especially the wing roundels, but settled down as they dried.

Thanks Ben, that is an excellent tip. Wishing you best of success and enjoyment as you finish out your Beaufighter.

Thanks Rui, I had fun making this one 🙂 The kit is great, up to the Tamiya standard despite being a little older.
