What do you get with Aftermarket Decals?
Posted by Anonymous on Tuesday, July 15, 2003 4:17 PM
Okay, so i'm considering getting some aftermarket decals for the p47 i'm fixin to build. When you buy AM decals, do they also come with alternate paint-scheme instructions?

thanks as always!

Yes they do. AM decals usually give three to four choices. It includes pictures or drawings of the aircraft, showing the paint , markings and other details about that specific aircraft. Some AM decals will even include enough common markings to completely decal three or four different aircraft.

Hey mer
Basically Berny says it all(ah no not againTongue [:P]). Right now I am at a loss for wordsSad [:(].
When using the AM decals, you have more of a variety of a/c to choice from, paint schemes and the like.
Dont worry, you'll enjoy using the AM decals!! By the way what markings are you gonna put the P-47 in?? HINT HINT

Hey mer,
I have seen B.A.B done up before so I would choose "Why Pick on Me" but then again you are the one building the 47.
Come to think of it, who makes these decals??

Hey Berny,
Yes I have the check in hand..... my local hobby shop is going to be VERY happyTongue [:P]Wink [;)]Wink [;)]
