Montex do masks for the 190-D so should fit they cover a range of markings, The national and standard markings should be okay & some of the other code no's etc might be good for a 190-A especially if you aren't too worried about accuracy.

Airfix may even have the decal sheet as a spare as the kit pops up now and again (I have one in my loft but can almost guarantee my decals are perished.

I ordered decal sets for the 1/24 Hurricane and BF 109E direct from Airfix.   I think it was charged around £10 per decal sheet (including postage) and I received them really quickly from them.

Probably your best bet for your kit.
