+Decals added. These are //not// the greatest. The printing is not brilliant, and one of the colour layers is quite clearly offset, leading to stray white borders where there shouldn't be any.

+Also added the vinyl tracks. These are awful, as usual. They were fitted (ends fastened with superglue) and then painted with Vallejo Surface Primer - Black. They will get weathered and painted later.
