I had to make the hole in the washer a little bigger using a 9/32” twist drill bit. A pair of pliers helped coax the inflating needle into the washer… no glue required!
Metabarons flight deck decals
-
cbm shapes of:
Illustrious
Shinanocbm shapes are the background layers for the flight deck decals. They are related to the dimensions of the sculpts.

Thanks Dedo, these are quite nice.

Wish list:

What I still need is a silhouette of the flight deck of the sculpt of the italian carrier “Aquila”. Does anyone have one? Even though I got two sculpts of the Aquila I can’t scan them due to there huge island (tower part of the ship) and I don’t want to “decapitate” my italian carriers, because they are already painted.
-
coloured drawings of Aquila, Kostromitinowa and Graf Zeppelin
…I appreciate any support, there is still a lot to do…

First try of the HMS Illustrious.

However, here it is…

These are awesome.

Second one…
CV HMS Formidable 1942 (Illustrious Class)

first try of the USS wasp….

Illustrious Class Mk II
Here is the ‘pill-box’ version of the illustrious class. When I tried the former decal version, it occured that the ‘bumps’ on the flight deck (AA-guns) brought some problems about when attaching the decals. Additionally, the island (tower) shape was modified.
