CTA Decals

Post by novokits »

Hello!
Long time since I wrote posts here. I continue to build kits, together with this, idea of production of decals has taken real shape.
Now I printing first items on laser printer, however, I have projects for printing by screen printing.

So, first was 1/72 decal for RF-4B.

I agree, these look excellent and a great choice of subjects, especially good to see USMC Phantoms as the Corps often loses out to the USN when it comes to decal options for any of the F-4 types. I hope these decals are a success for you Novo.

Thanks for the kind words Shaun! I have thought about next decals, but sometimes I think it is marginal and for very big fan. For example I have finished files for silkprint decals for a USN plane from Kitty Hawk and Constellation in Green Camo during Vietnam war. This simple decals and here main info in camouflage sceme.

That is an excellent looking Wyvern, Oleg as indeed are your latest decal sheets. Top work all round 8-)

Your English is fine, Oleg and is certainly better than my non-existent Russian!

Congratulations on your venture, I'm sure it will be quite successful.
Not only do the sheets look to be good quality, that is quite a mix of subjects.
