Hi, Rob. That's really very kind, I do however, have the Eduard dual =
combo kit which, as luck would have it also has the Kempf decals, =
however if the roolz don't permit then I've got to use the kit decals as =
supplied. The problem there is waiting three months for a sunny day in =
Britain to leave them in the window to bleach out, by which time the =
contest is history (Is it it already??). Your offer is very appreciated, =
though, and Thank you. I could be making a rod for my own back here, =
though, because that Fokker streaked camo is going to be the real issue =
for me with this kit, it is going to be hard to do without it looking =
like a mess. I was thinking of using artists oils over the light blue =
acrylic, because they can kept workable and blendable, the problem there =
is the three days to a week drying time.And it gets better, because I =
was thinking to get it done in a couple of weeks, because once the Part =
etch set that I am waiting for arrives I will have to start the =
Friedrichshafen from Techmod. Nice. Thanks again for your generous =
offer, Rob.=20

Hi Nick,

I've got some Aeromaster I can send you.

Hello, Rob!
What is the issue with the decals? I do think the carrier =
film looks rather thick. Do they not settle easily? The last Dragon kit =
I built was the stars and stripes Spad and that was about 300 years ago. =
Thanks for any advice you could offer on this.

I'd watch the decals on that if I were you.
The dragon kit goes together very well.=20

Hi, Brent. Is it too late to join in on this one? Has it kicked off =
yet? Just finished a lengthy headache of a build (and posted the pics to =
the gallery!) and I've an ancient Dragon fokker Dr.I (kempf) in a =
