Javelin decal gripe

[Van]

I have the Model Alliance 1/72 scale decals and am really disappointed that there is only one set of tail fin flashes. Why oh why coulld they not include enough for each scheme. It is not as if Javelins used generic fin flashes, they were huge! Yes, I know I could paint them, but they wouldn't match the roundels as well as decals would...

thats MA for you. So many ill thought out sheets. Their research was hit and miss too. Their BAe Typhoon sheet was poor. Serials in the wrong grey. So many wrong fonts on other sheets.

Roundels.. paint your own, then they'll match the fin flashes. Easy as pie.

Not knowing your exact builds this is probably not helpful but my thought was "why not use the kit roundels and flashes?".

Given that all (except Plastyk) 1/72 scale Javelins are very old and often eastern bloc repops, the original decals are usually rubbish, then this isn't really an option.

Your answer is not helpful. Following your logic: why supply any roundels with sets of decals at all? Painting roundels may be easy for some. Perhaps your post was to tell everyone how easy you find painting them.
