Thanks.. Assembly was quite easy, and only issue is related to the tires: they are too big for the wheels and there is a gap in between.

For silvering, I sometimes found that applying Walther's setting solution, poking the area to let the solution fill in, applying a bit more solution and then rolling a cotton bud to press it down fixes the problem. The challenge with Walther's is that it's REALLY strong, so if you get it on the paint itself, quickly wipe it off.
For bad silvering with lots of spots, that's going to be a lot tougher…

Thanks, but the issue happened only after I applied the VMS matt varnish. Before, there was no silvering.. I guess there was a chemical reaction

Welcome, GCB. Add your album to your project and use the comment in that album for the question about the varnish, so there is a link.

Understood, thanks....
Not sure when I am supposed to use the stash..??

That's the best part of Scalemates, just apply the green stash button on a product page to indicate you own the product and then you can link it to your project.

Hello modelers,
As you can see on my album related to the AH-64, I got a major fiasco at the end of the build when applying the final varnish.
I used:
Primer: Mr Hobby, finishing surfacer 1500 black
Paint: AK real color Halo green thinned with AK thinner
Gloss varnish: Mr Hobby Super Clear (spray)
Decals: Caracal decals applied with Micro set and Micro Sol
Weathering: oil (Abteilung)
Final varnish: VMS Matt applied directly from the bottle (no thinner)
Then decals started pealing and white marks appeared on the model. I tried to remove the decals but it became a mess... I think the kit is going to the bin but I would like to understand what happened or what I did wrong. Ideas welcome...
