I recently bought a Special Hobby issue of the SPAD VII. I wanted to play some more with the CDL technique.
I've gathered internet references and I want to do his aircraft as it was and is now in the nuseum.

Problem is, there seems to be NO aftermarket decals to do this version. Seriously?
The only accurate markings I've found are in the BlueMax kit.

I have bought kits in the past just for the decals. I really don't want to do this again as over the last few months I've gotten 8 BlueMax kits, 7 Eduard and 2 Special Hobby.
It's a sickness I know. I've promised myself, NO MORE BUYING KITS. I need funds put towards Christmas shopping and I have, again, too many kits in the stash.
If anyone can help me out with the correct markings in 1/48 scale without me having to buy another BlueMax kit it would be oh so greatly appreciated.
