If you're
into Ju-88's then this sheet offers a good variety of options from a
variety of theatres during WW2. This decal sheet covers 16
aircraft in a variety of locations including Russia, France, Norway,
The Netherlands and Italy. Some of these 16 aircraft are torpedo
bombers. The aircraft with the wave camo be a great challenge for
anyone that attempts to build those aircraft.
The
instructions are beautifully printed in glossy full colour with numbered
arrows showing which decals go where. Each aircraft is shown from
one angle and there is generic colour drawings showing 4 views of the Ju
88 which will assist in camo layout and decal placement for national
insignia etc. There is also 5 photos showing the various defensive
guns used on the Ju 88.....this plane was hunted so the defensive guns
kept being modified to try to deal with the aerial threats the Ju 88 had
to counter. Thankfully the instruction sheets do mention what type
of canopy and defensive guns were fitted to each or these aircraft and
also includes info on what sort of weapons racks were fitted to the
underside. Also included is colour samples on
the instruction sheets to help the less informed modellers figure out the
various RLM colours.
The
decals print by Cartograf come on 3 small decal sheets on the 1/72 sample
before me. They are clearly and crisply printed and appear to be of
the highest quality. Most of the aircraft appear to have some sort of
squadron nose art, no sexy pin ups.....but interesting none the less.
This is a very well done
decal sheet with good variety and well worth purchasing.
