Face it, Luftwaffe sells and since I like the subject, I'm pleased to see new sheets! In 1/48, you have two real choices for kits. One is the Italeri/DML kit and the other is the Tamiya version. Fujimi also does one but most will pass on it as it is much older and not up to current standards. However, if you have the kit, I'm sure these decals will fit. All of these have the 'blown' canopy and standard tail sections.

First up is a I./JG 301 plane in what passes for standard camo of the time in RLM 75/83/76. No mottling other than the tail section and no coding at all are a bit unusual. They did have time to put a personal marking on it, though. Serial is fictitious.

Next, also in RLM 75/83/76, is what appears to be the technical officer's plane from an unknown unit. it has a considerable amount of mottling done in what seems to be RLM 75 as well as a few patches in red-brown primer.

Finally, black 12 in RLM 82/83 on the fuselage with the upper wings in RLM 75 over what appears to be RLM 76. The fuselage and lower surfaces have large areas of the greenish RLM 76 that is often called 'RLM 84', with some bits in the standard RLM 76. The lower rear fuselage seem to be in natural metal.  It has main gear doors in either tarnished aluminum or dark green. A goodly number of odd paint patches add much interest to this aircraft.
