Hello everyone.
Great job on that tools :clap: (wish I have that talent)!
Anyways, I just joined here to ask for some advice about my build.
I just finished priming & painting my Tamiya Panther ( 56022 )'s lower hull but I am a little bit confused on the "sticking the Sheet part" to the lower front hull (shown on page 8 on the manual). My question is, should I just stick that sticker on the painted surface or i really need to file the lower front hull good and stick it to the metal?
Some modelers don't seem to bother installing that "Sheet sticker". Even Tamiya is showing it on the front page of the manual(two holes on the lower front hull).
So, how would you guys do it?

sticker on before painting, otherwise it might just 'peel' off.

I ( and many others ) used a thin. 0,5mm evergreen plastic sheet and made it like the footprint of the sticker and glued it on
