You could probably hash together something from here.

Southern Sky Models has RAAF decals (by Hawkeye models) for the otter available.  The Qantas and TAA decals listed there are on backorder though but may be available elsewhere.

It has been awhile, but there have been discussions in some of the forums on obtaining the fonts for both civil and military fonts, and I managed to find both. Just cannot remember where. But the task is first to identify the font, and then do a search.

I think this may be the page Don was referring to. Very useful stuff:

Here's the place to get fonts for military aircraft.

I've got a different release of that kit.  You wouldn't want to use the kit decals even if you had them.

In addition to the roundals, you need the registration number.  To make a decal with that, you need the right font. It has been awhile, but there have been discussions in some of the forums on obtaining the fonts for both civil and military fonts, and I managed to find both.  Just cannot remember where.  But the task is first to identify the font, and then do a search.

Once you have the font you can use either your graphics program or your word processor to do the decals.  I find a graphics program easier to size the decal to what you need.

You might try going to the decals forum and ask about the font.

You could also just do it up as a bush plane with civilian registration.

I just noticed the scale.  You could use Revell Germany's new Twin Otter decal sheet if you can aquire one.

I build 1/48 scale WW2 fighters.

Have fun.

I bought this recently from ebay, but with no decals. I've had a good look round the web but can't find any decals for this or images to print my own. Can anyone out there help please?
