Aftermarket decals for LaGG-3 in 1/72

[atvd1020]

I've started modeling again after changing jobs and moving to Denmark (hi there Copenhagen modelers!) and am working on the Dakoplast/Eastern Express LaGG-3 series 66 at the moment. Since I'm a bit unsure of how the decals work, what aftermarket decal options for this aircraft exist besides the (now-unavailable) Authentic Decals sheet?

There's an old Microscale sheet, 72-381, that includes a LaGG-3, an AML sheet 7225 that has three, Kora do a sheet that includes a Japanese example, KORD72192, plus a new sheet, KORD72206 that features Finnish decals and resin parts.

if your Dakoplast kit has decals from Anna & Co. then these are perfectly usable.

the skilled people who did these decals are now running a company called Begemot.

Unfortunately the decal sheet has no manufacturer's information The other aftermarket sets available don't have anything for the series 66 either.

Sorry, if it is not clearly labeled "Anna & Co." then it could be anything at all.

and I could understand your hesitation in using it.

the only other decals in 1/72 for a Tbilisi Oblegchenniy (Series 60-70) come from the Toko or Roden kits.

I think I have one in the stash and could part with the decals if you want.

Unfortunately they don't seem to be in stock any more-at least, according to the inventory they have on their website. But now I'm looking at the other distributors from the Olimp website-who knows, maybe I will get lucky.

the only other decals in 1/72 for a Tbilisi Oblegchenniy (Series 60-70) come from the Toko or Roden kits.

Thanks a lot for the offer! I will get back to you after testing the kit decals on something else
