Those are very cool.  Thanks for posting, Jamo.  I especially like the Morane markings.  I've never seen those before.
Cheers,
Bud

Thanks James for posting these new decals.

I noticed that the first set of decals show the Snipe "Nelly" which is the same as the WnW kit, but of interest are the wing markings, these are depicted in red stars unlike the WnW kit which have black stars, I always believed that the red stars were correct.

They provide both options, Des, so I don't think even they are quite sure.  Personally, I prefer your rendition.
Cheers,

Yes...i've seen that too, a "little" to late to post it though.

Thx to KV decals for these 1/72 decals. It's good to know that although being a small scale we braillers are not forgotten!

Cheers

Thanks Bud but I did see that both options are available, it just makes me wonder why Wingnuts did not give the builder the same option, they must also be unclear.
