Thank you all for encouraging words.

Douglas and barry, thank you for the info about acrylic coating spray. I’ll give it a try.

Zathros, paint it must be a good idea. As the case may be I will consider it later.

Reading Wilfried’s comment I remember coloring of yellow encircled section was reverse in original kit. That is, now black section was printed white and now white section was printed black. So, I painted black over white section using water color and for black section glued peeled off thin top layer of white paper over there.
I hope no more misprint in this kit….
At that point I took it for granted that correction and modification is inevitable accompaniment to paper model so I didn’t think of claiming a replacement ….

BTW, I took attached photo six months ago putting the model on the floor. Light source was only ceiling light about two meters (seven feet) above the floor. To my joy, in this light setting color deterioration isn’t so noticeable.
