SHEET: FPNCF 72009W
UNITS: All
PRICE: £6.95 per sheet
REVIEWER: Scott Van Aken
NOTES:  

From Fantasy Printshop, a line of roundels in 1/72 scale. This sheet is somewhat unique is that there is no clear varnish coating over the decals. This means that there is no worries about silvering of the clear film. It also means that one has to be a bit more cautious in handling these. The instructions state that these should be in water no longer than a second or two or they will curl. However, the end result will be well worth the additional handling precautions.

This particular sheet is for Type D roundels with a white surround. These were very common on Cold War aircraft where the airframe was so dark that it needed the white surround to have it visible. This was what was used on the 111sq black Hunter display team. There are basically three sizes provided. These range from 18" to 36" to 54". The sheet is also available for 1/48 and 1/32 modelers.
