Nissan R390 : sneak preview

Here's a pic of the Nissan R390 I've been working on recently. Paint was two tone blue, light at the front, dark at the back, all the rest is decals. As you can imagine, they were a bit of a nightmare to put on, but the overall effect looks pretty good. Now all the checks are in place, the sponsorship decals are next.
More pics when finished.

Steve, I didn't quite understand what is painted and what are decals... Are all blue checks decals?

Ales,

The pale blue at the front is paint up to around the front edge of the doors, and then the darkest blue at the back is also paint, everything else is decals.
