Applying decals to "scale out" my model airplane. Decals from Callie Graphics

EP 46 Adding scale markings the easy way
Adding the final scale detail and markings are probably the most fun part of finishing a model airplane for me. It's what gives the plane its own identity and often tells a story.

Thank you for your kind words. I’m happy you like my videos, they are a lot of fun for me to make. And I love sharing tips and demonstrations to hopefully make building model airplanes easier for others. It’s very special when I get comments in other languages from people around the world making me realize how far our hobby spans and that we can talk about it.
Thank you. 🙏🏻

Grazie per le tue gentili parole. Sono felice che ti piacciano i miei video, sono molto divertenti da fare per me. E adoro condividere consigli e dimostrazioni per, si spera, rendere più facile la costruzione di modellini di aeroplani per gli altri. È molto speciale quando ricevo commenti in altre lingue da persone di tutto il mondo che mi fanno capire fino a che punto si estende il nostro hobby e che possiamo parlarne.
Grazie. 🙏🏻. I hope this worked correctly.

Leave the transfer paper on and remove when it's dry, hadn't thought of that! I have use callie- graphics a couple times now but always struggled getting the paper backing off before hand. I use the wet method as well and will for sure leave the paper on until dry. Thanks for that tip!

You think putting a piece of clear tape on the edges of the transfer paper would help the curling problem?

[@Capgains7777]

Actually I liked the curling of the transfer paper because it meant it was letting go of the sticker. Sometimes it took a little longer, but the main thing was that even if it pulled up on the sticker a little, it was still aligned and just needed to be pushed down on the surface to be permanent.

Well I said were is your cat.....the CATO has to be there in the video....

[@Capgains7777]

Take a closer look. She was there next to me when I was showing the decals in almost the first shot. When I go to turn the plane around on the table.
