What about the fabled summary post with the final, ultimate, last, operational, best versions consolidated and labeled?

I hope you haven't given up on that.

here is the decals on the 1/36 PFALZ DXII wing on your left under the decal is the German cross do you see it? on the left of center is a test over white and the dark green the left side was put down with micro set and the right with solvaset the micro set worked the best and the decals were coated with decal bonder i want to try it with out the bonder.. you can see i didn't take my time with this, sorry about the shabby cut lines on the test{ it is just a test} the white spots is because i didn't seal it and it has been laying around in side my model tool box for 3 weeks .
