Something to break up the PC10 monotony of your RFC shelf.

Post by: NigelR on May 09, 2018, 08:17:20 PM: Darn, I've had this set since it first came out and never built the kit. I hoped that when I finally got round to it, I would have something quite unique. Looks like there will be a few more now....

Great set of decals though.

Post by: mike in calif on May 10, 2018, 12:31:14 AM: My thought as well Nigel, until I realized that it is very unlikely that two of these will be on a show table at any given time.

Hisso I assume because Pheon designed this specifically for the Wingnut Wings kit, which is Hisso only. But I don't know for sure.....

Hispano-Suiza, per actual aircraft. Pheon notes that it was designed from the Wingnuts kit, but should work with the Roden kit as well. There's plenty of extra squares for coverage if needed. And since it was done in the field, I doubt the geometry was plumb-line perfect.

Post by: mgunns on May 14, 2018, 01:38:36 PM: I have physically seen this model built with these decals and is more impressive to witness the built model with the decals than the drawings and renderings. It enhances the model nicely.
