Neither! Get the damn thing finished, use aftermarket decals
they are as good as any one can make. Then build another model.
And just to show I don't follow my own advice, I have made my
own decals for the austrian Albatross I am building now. I
have been testing various undercoats, and I think what you said
about white is sound advice. My home-made decals look much crisper
and have brighter colours with white under.
