Thanks, Vermin King. I have two glass display cabinets, must be over 7 ft tall each, and now
full. They were intended for 1/200 scale models but larger ones need some space to store,
so my collection now outgrows storage place. And I have to think about a bonfire event
to take care of them. Will probably make video to witness how they will end.

To prevent messiness and damages like scratches and glue traces during building stage.
Unlike ordinary paper, photoprints that have a glossy or matt surface will be easily spoiled if the
model or the parts are being handled during assembly. That's the only reason.

Now the Sabreliner has got engines and looking forward to the landing gears.
Yep, photoprints are used to give her a shiny look.

For photo paper Jan I used CA glue which was a hint I read on this web site. Works great. Just have to be careful to use just a little and keep off your fingers which is my main problem. Is there a better way? wc

Besides the CA, another method I use for photo paper is to lightly sand both attachment points. This gives the glue something to grip.
