Here's the build, scroll down to Part 11 for the decals:

Maybe replace that decal with some stripes cut out of orange Monokote trim?


Thanks! I indeed have Rusto Real Orange. I’ve just had a brainstorm: Rather than trying to match the orange paint to the decal, I may paint the entire model orange, then when I paint the white fins leave THAT detail masked off on the white fin—and not have to use the orange decals at all.
