AMG Used to Hand Print his Decals with Silk Screen. I think if you stare at his orignal Lower you might see where he was trying to get grey there. But I am sure he had simialr problems matching inks to the technicly correct hues.

Plus as a matter of taste I am sure its more than possible to use any of the later DOuug Lower 4 tests which have a greenish tinge to the grey to USe those instead.

Deeply apreciate the compliment. I think they will look great on a Kit. THAT will be the next project. Working with large Decals is an exersice in itself.

I learned adding ELmers White glue to the Water you use to slide the Decals off with helps alot to fix them to the project permently. Its water soluable and disolves right in. I usually add enough to make it couldy/ Skim Milky in color. It dosent interefere with Microsol solutions or disturb the colors in anyway.

I didnt take time here to do a nice job of applying them. I just wated as you adaptly describe "the Stand-Off Look" Test.

I had Battle Axe Insructions that showed laying the Loz Fabric on a 10 degree off set from ceterline as they printed thier Decals in Fabric Bolt Diamensions too.

BUt Iam afraid some experts never heard of such a thing. I think I need to check with FOKKER-TEAM-SCHORNDORF Aircraft restorers to see how they do it least it was already covered on the Drome long ago and I missed it.
