Hey Nigel,
Great in-box review, I might have to get my hands on this kit due to the colorful high-viz markings. I'd like to do the F/A-18C (164905) NF-400 for my aircraft collection, the green looks great over gray.
Thanks for your time,
Joe

Thanks Joe.
Thats my favourite decal option as well.
The difficult part of doing that scheme will be matching the green paint colour to the green of the decals,but they should blend together with a carefull overspray of a very thin mixture of paint and thinners.
