"Prepare to weep at the kits you will never own!!" BD, how could you be so cruel? The only hope for most of us is that someone like HLJ, Radsan or Starjet picks up a few of the "Show Specials". If it comes to eBay, it's down to who's got the biggest wallet!

Whilst I don't speak a word of Japanese - more's the pity with the number of Japanese 1/144 sites on the Web - I do note that Kami de Koro Koro has a new resin kit in the winds (the photo depicts an unpainted low wing monoplane, grey plastic, with red handwriting on the sheet of paper beneath it). Looks somewhat like an early Fiat G.50 - can anyone confirm this?

On a completely different topic (!), can anyone point me towards some good lettering fonts for WW2 aircraft? I have the "Amarillo" font prevalent on most US aircraft of the time. I also have the RAF/RN/RCAF postwar fonts from the Web, which are excellent for things like Sea Furies, but the "blocky" style of the numbering is not in tune with on most WW2 aircraft.

In particular, I'm looking for fonts for the Luftwaffe and for RAF/RAAF serials.

Any help in this direction would be greatly appreciated!

Whoops! Should point out that I'm talking about PC fonts above. Either TrueType or Adobe Type 1 are fine. I need them for ALPS decals I am preparing for a number of resin kits I bought from Don Schmenk in the States.
