1/144 Ju-52 Decals by Print Scale




1/144 Ju-52 Decals by Print Scale
I thought I had featured this company before, maybe it was on the KG144 BBS?
Print Scale Decals based in Russia are quietly expanding their range of 1/144 decals and are definitely worth a strong consideration when it comes to deciding what scheme you are going to paint your next kit or repaint and existing gashapon! The review for the larger scales are positive and their use of colour and registration id well executed.

A new set of decals #14434 by FCM of Brazil have been released providing 3 alternative scheme on a South American theme. The screen printed decals are printed by Microscale in the US and result in incredible detailing (see pictures above)

2x from the 2nd Patrol Group of the Brazilian Air Force. (FAB), one of which is the interesting scheme for Ärará (She was christened Arará after the steamer of the same name previously sank by the U-507 off the Brazilian coast), although shown here in 1945 markings, the aircraft was in July 1943 involved in sinking the U-199 of the coast of Brazil east of Rio de Janeiro
