Hello everyone!
Does any manufacturer make stencil decals for Bf-109s in 1:48 scale?
I was applying decals to a Bf-109 G2 yesterday when I lost my temper with them.
Well, what can you expect for decals 15 years old? They were thick, stiff, silvered badly, and broke very easily. I used techmod decals instead for the the national insignias and registry numbers, and now I'm missing a set of stencils. Tally ho! makes a sheet for Fw-190s but not for Bf-109s.
Do I just have to buy a complete set of decals just for the stencils or does someone makes a set with just the stencils?
Regards,
Eetu

Hi Eetu,
Yes, Aeromaster make them for the Bf109G. Unfortunately I dont have any in stock at the moment but one of my main suppliers does, see here -

Thanks, that's just what I'm looking for!
I'll check out my my favorite LHS if they have that in stock, or can order them for me.

Eetu, these and many other 'stencil' sets are on order but it will be about 5 days before I get them in stock.
It may also be worth your while getting the 109E set and Fw190 etc as postage costs will not change for 1-4 sets.

Hi Eetu
You say you've been using Techmod decals for the national insignia - their new Finnish Bf 109G-2 sheet includes stencils.
All the best

Yes, I completely forgot that sheet. I'll go and check that LHS this weekend.
Thanks for reminding me about that!
