Ameyam,

Great looking model!

I would certainly add color and some design to the bottom, large checks possibly? Yellow/blue or yellow/black?

As for applying vinyl graphics and lettering. Yes, they can be applied wet. I tell my customers to use "Foam Window Cleaner." You can purchase this stuff in an aerosol can. You don't need much, just a light dusting of spray.

As for tiny bubbles? Pay no attention to them, eventually all bubbles go away, the drying of the chemical and the heat from the sun, all add to this.

The absolute most important thing, is to make sure the surface is clean.

Here's some graphicxs applied by the modeler themselves.

As for your model, I could see "CFC Graphics," on one wing and "Charlie's Flying Circus," on the other.

For FREE if you put them on your model!!
