New 1/72nd Sopwith 1 1/2 Strutter Decals
« on: October 17, 2023, 09:18:12 AM »
Speaking of decals, my old Listee friend Matt Bittner made me aware of some new Sopwith 1 1/2 Strutter decals from Print Scale:

https://www.printscale.org/product_1238.html

Now, I'm sure some of those a/c pictured on their profiles were in a doped aluminum finish, but still . . . the decals look pretty good from this end. I'm not a fan of the light, powdery blue used on their roundels and rudder stripes either, but at least the serials are separate so we can each choose our own poison.

Enjoy!

Well notwithstanding I will buy these but may use Model Art roundels.

Great!  I am building a French Flashback Strutter now. I also see that AEG C.IV decals and Fokker DR.1 decals are also now available

Forumites,
                 I got my Sopwith decals in. All looks good but the roundels and the fin flashes all have this dark red ring around the edge.  >:( :'(
