I have checked my 'Clerget Camel' kit, which has Brown, Barker and two unnamed schemes

1685 seems to be a much earlier boxing:

Hang on - looking at the Scalemates timeline, is this the 'starving cow' ribbed model that became the Academy camel?

I had one of those, I may still have the decals

I am not sure Richard. I am attaching a link to E Bay. No relation to seller, just posting for reference.

PS: I know it is not the very first release as I have that one. Different Markings and packaging.

Thanks Guys. I really don't need the whole Enchilada! Actually a good photo copy of the decal sheet would work. If I don't solve this by finding a set of the decals I guess My Camel will be finished to the point of needing the final couple of decals to be finished  ::)

I'm still not clear which kit this is - is it the 'Academy' one with horrible wings, or the much nicer 'Hobbycraft' one which has Clerget and LeRhone variants

If it is the latter - buy the kit and take the decals. I'll take the rest off your hands

Well, I wish I was sure which Mold this one is. I do see a decided difference in How the Decals Look  8) Here is another option. Revelle of Germany issued the Eduard kit in The Markings I need although it is 1/48th. I could use those decals as a basis to make My own. So I am also in for the decals from that kit.

email floating your way!

As a side note...
You will need to cap those bars at the right angle with tamiya tape. I just allowed a little extra in length to make sure.

Thanks Kevin. I am kind of weird in that I don't mind paying $20.00 for a decal sheet that I will only use 1 marking but I hate to pay $10.00 for a kit that I don't need that has those markings . I am trying to make sense of My Mind Set  ::) That being said the last one went for like $11.00 dollars so I entered a $13.00 bid  8)
RAGIII

PS: already outbid twice. I hate E Bay  >:(

Is there a photo of the dragon logo/emblem anywhere? I could probably print one for you if I had some detail to go from.... Doing the google I find nothing specific on this but I assume there are pics somewhere....

If anyone has the decals and would kindly scan the wee emblem I would be happy to attempt laser printing on decal sheet. Worth a shot!

Please PM me if one of you kind peeps are willing to help Rick finish his Bird.

I am pretty sure it is the bad kit with the plank wing ribs. That being said once it arrives I am going to offer it up along with some Part PE for an unbelievable price  8)

Yeah, with Hobby Craft that is a distinct possibility! Probably will use something I don't need as a test then if needed seal them with decal saver and hope for the best  ::)
