Andre B Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Hello, Wonder if these decals from Xtradecals also useful for wartime aircraft's or are they only for pre-war aircrafts? Or are there other decal's available concerning RAF black letters and numbers in 1/72 for WWII aircrafts? https://www.hannants.co.uk/product/X72157 / André Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabbit Leader Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Andre, This Xtradecal sheet is mainly for Post War RAF serials, however there are many square cornered letters and numbers on this sheet that may be useful for WW2 era aircraft. It is a good sheet to have, so I recommend it. There are also other companies like "Fantasy Print Shop" and "Ventura" who also do similar sized letters and numbers in a range of fonts. Here are two links. http://www.fantasyprintshop.co.uk/RAF-Numbers-and-Letters-WW11_B216OP.aspx https://www.hannants.co.uk/manufacturer/ventura To be honest it probably pays to have a set of each. I hope this helps... Cheers.. Dave. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Work In Progress Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 That requires the WW2 type. In addition to the Fantasy Printshop sheet there is an Aviaeology sheet here https://www.hannants.co.uk/product/AOD72C05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawk Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Another vote for the Ventura sheet https://www.hannants.co.uk/product/VA7252 Loads of characters with several variations in styles (and stencilled format), plus 4" for Royal Navy aircraft. Thin, tough and cheap. Will keep you going for years. Also available in other scales that dare not speak their name. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
