This is the original kit decal sheet. Looks too yellow to me so instead I'm thinking to use aftermarket decals.

Cool I've got the same kit of the VF-111 just with additional nose art. Watching with interest. Your decal choise is also pretty cool.

Actually, just after receiving this VF-84 sheet, I found anoher sheet for sale with VF-111 markings. Would have liked the Sundowners scheme more but this choice is also good 😄

excellent choice of decoration
yellowed decals are recoverable in the sun
exposed to the sun for a few hours
sometimes it works
good editing

Thanks for the advice, Juskifo. I have kept the original decals so I'll be able to try to recover them later

It's done about 95%. Need to paint antennae and sensors. Weapons to be added later. Thanks everyone for showing interest to this project!
