Nearly there with the carbon Jordan!

Carbon copy!
Carbon copy!

After many hours of heartache (and plenty of red wine!), it’s looking very reasonable and thankfully, nearly done!  As the carbon decals I used was a mixture of tones (and too light), I ened up having to apply a couple of coats of Vallejo Air black in order to tone down the overall effect to a more charcoal- like color.   The Jordan decals are for the 1/20 scale Tamiya (and therefore slightly too small for this 1/18) so I’ll scan and enlarge them and print a fresh lot on my HP inkjet.  So far, I’ve applied six coats of Johnsons Clear, but another six probably wouldn’t hurt the finish!
