"Albatros D-Va Decals " Topic

Reviresco has released Full Coverage Decals in both 1/144th and 1/72nd scales for the Albatros D-Va.

I seem to be missing finding the 1/72 listings.

The navigation seems a little tricky but here's what I was able to find:

This is the list for the DVa:

Very cool!!

Is that von Hippels plane?

What prep work is required on the assembled plane? Spray with gloss white?

These look great, are there any instructions as to how these work?

The film on these new type decals is so much thinner than the old type screen printed decals that it will amaze you. The clear plastic base of these decals is stretchy enough that it will conform to compound curves almost as well as paint. That is not to say that it can completely replace paint. You will still have to do some touch ups and paint small items such as tires, guns, spinners, and such.

These new decals are somewhat different in their application procedures than the old decals you may be used to. There is no white color in these decals. This is not such a problem as you might suspect. Since you must prime the kit anyway – I just spray paint it with flat white. The decals are semi transparent and designed to go over a white background. I can print on white backed paper, but the white backing is thicker and does not conform as well. All of our National Markings sheets are printed on the white background paper.

All of our decals are supplied with detailed instruction sheets. Follow the instructions and you will get good results. I also guarantee all our products unconditionally. This means that if you are unhappy with your purchase, I will replace or refund as needed. So don't be shy to try these new decals.

Thanks for your interest. John McEwan REVIRESCO

Nice! Any chance you'll ever issue decals for the various factions in Starguard!?
