Doigie84 Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 (edited) Hello! I have a spare 1:72 Revell Blackburn Skua kit I was hoping to complete in the pre-war silver paint scheme's but don't have the decals for this scheme. I can't find anywhere just to buy the decals alone to do this. <Request removed> I have always been fascinated and had a soft spot for the Blackburn Skua - have recently read 'Skua - story of the Royal Navy's dive bomber' by Peter Smith - which I highly recommend by the way. This has really motivated me to finally build a model of this unique aircraft. I Initially bought the Revell model of this plane as I usually find their kits are good quality - though I found out afterwards this kit is not very accurate or detailed so I then later bought the special hobby version which looks much better. Will be completing this special hobby one in the coulour scheme of the aircraft that operated off the carriers in the Norwegian campaign and the ill fated attacks on Scharnhorst. many thanks Innes Edited October 14, 2019 by Mike Removed request in wrong area by a member with less than 100 posts.

chris57 Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 This should really be in the Wanted section of General Discussion, however you require 100 posts to use that facility. If a Mod spots this they may delete it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jure Miljevic Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Chris57, I believe a hundred posts rule had been omitted half a year or so ago, so now anyone can post queries in Wanted section. Cheers Jure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Jure Jure the 100 post rule is still valid, and requesting a donation of, or payment for an item surely belongs in that section? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Jure Sorry Jure, you're misremembering. We added a free-for-all section for requests for instructions and painting guides, but we still don't permit new members to come in and immediately start asking for stuff. The Buy/Sell/Wanted area is to assist active members only I've removed the request but left the discussion aspect, and if anyone has suggestions of where to get decals, they can chime in 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

72modeler Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Only one that comes to mind is Xtradecals sheet 72-134, British FAA, 1939-41, but don't think that's the scheme you want to do? Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
