Thanks Buzz!
This was maybe the first decaled model I painted with flat paint — simply because I like the Testors aircraft grays, and the are all flat.
I did a gloss clear coat, applied the decals (those E decals were a bear to get to release!), the did a matte clear coat to restore the flat finish. Here is close-up of the nose cone.
