dcrfan Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Sorry numerous NZ decal options but all military https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/marketplace/toys-models/models/aircraft/1-72/listing/4033802219?bof=PmovvAxo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul J Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 26 Decals did some . Among were sets for Silver City, Channel Airways, a private company and British Eagle which was one I did and posted here in RFI. But on looking at the 26 site they all appear to have been removed ror some reason. Caracal did a set with a couple on it which might still be available.

kev67 Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Make sure you change the asymmetric horizontal tail surface, which featured on most Dove's and Devon's, I believe only early ones had symmetric tail surface, but always best to check which one you are building Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cngaero Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 The Aviation Hobby Shop, now sadly closed, used to sell an extensive range of 1/72 transfer sheets by S&M Decals of which some were dedicated to the Dove. Their range covered many UK based post war airlines. To the best of my knowledge, S&M Decals were produced by the late Mike Silk. Since the closure of TAHS, I have seen some of the S&M sheets advertised for sale from the Aviation Megastore. Additionally, Caracal did a couple of lovely sheets (CD72079 and CD72081), which were mainly military, with one civil option on each sheet. I would say that the Aviation Megastore would be your best option. I hope this helps. Chris. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually did most of Mels Laser decals and some of the Screen printed and have incorporated some into the 26Decals range although I didn't do any Dove decals for him but did do some Herons. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orso Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 There is one I would like to build but as my ALPS printer doesn't work I can't make the Triumph decal: https://www.airport-data.com/aircraft/photo/000581721.html I think that the letters will be to small for paint masks.

Orso Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 Sadly I never had any luck doing a decal using an ink-jet or a laser printer. It always come out smeared or just a drop of pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
