Semroc Goblin Build Part 11 Decal Tips





After the tape was removed, you can see the rounded leading edge mask.





The decals in the kit are very close together on the sheet.

You can save a little work by leaving the bats right over the Goblin name.
Leave one bat to the left and one to the right.
These two decals will back each other up on either side of one yellow fin.


The way the fin angles are cut, it's hard to visually line up the "Goblin" baselines.
With the model standing on a shelf, the type baseline should be parallel with the flat base of the shelf.

I used a CD case set down the body tube and fillet "valley" to get a square reference line.

When setting this decal, try to do it visually first. Then check it with a square corner like the CD case. You might be surprised by how crooked the decal is.
