The decals are
in-register, clear and are beautifully printed by Microscale. Some of the
markings and badges are 2 piece decals, ensuring good registry. There are
plenty of options and each aircraft's markings are separated on the sheet
by a dashed-line to make it easier to differentiate them.
The color instruction sheet has 4-view
drawings to assist in decal placement, and numerous notes point out tips
on specific decals. A black and white paint scheme sheet is also included.
Xtracolor and Xtracrylix paints are referenced along with British Standard
numbers
This
sheet retails for £6.95
/ $11.49 and is
