Aircraft in Plastic Decals

Custom decals designed by Meindert de Vreeze
Regularly, I design my own decals for my aircraft models as these are not available in after market sets or not in a particular scale. Or for decals for the World Air Forces in Plastic models with particular schemes that were not available or hard to find. For the model enthusiast, a decals sheet can be custom designed, often in your desired scale.
IMPORTANT: Please do not expect excellent "Cartograph" like quality! These decals are home made laser printed and of rare subjects for which no large series printed commercial decals are available!

DECAL SYSTEM
Each decal sheet is LASER full colour printed on one continuous print film, so each decal needs to be cut out with fine scissors.
No other prior decal preparation is needed.
Each cut out decal can be applied as usual after soaking it a short while in water. Decals are VERY THIN, so slide off from the wet backing sheet on a horizontally held GLOSSY model surface.
Note 1: a decal that contains a large white section is often split in two parts. To apply the full decal marking, first set the white decal section at correct position and than on top of that the coloured section. On the decals sheet you will often see an “arrow” to indicate this way of application (on white model surfaces, the white section may not be needed).
Note 2: sometimes a white edge is unavoidable on a specific decal; remove the tiny white edge with fine scissors or overpaint the edge later on the model.
Note 3: please be aware these are hobby custom decals of subjects often not available, not commercial decals.
After all decals have been applied, finish the model with your preferred final gloss, matt or semi-matt varnish coats. This will also protect all the decals.
Some modellers also want some of my decals for building their model and send me a mail to ask about a decal sheet. Often, it is possible to provide a sheet. If you need another scale, let me know.
To save costs and effort, decal requests by enthusiasts are combined but it may take a bit longer to get your decals delivered.
Decals are designed in a specific scale. If you need decals in another scale, let me know.
Decals sheet cost indications:
> about 6 to 25 euro each, depending on decal sheet size.
+ add international untracked postage + PayPal payment costs about 3 tot 6 euro per shipment.
Interested in a (few) designed decal sheet for personal use on your model?
CONTACT
Send me an email:
Please clearly indicate in your mail:
- which # decal numbered sheet you need and how many?
- what scale?
- your country with postal address
I will mail you if this is possible and the total costs.
Important: as modelling enthusiast, I combine requests to save costs for everyone so please allow a longer delivery time.

First, sheet #1 has the
peculiar white walk way lines in 1/32 seen on grey Tornado ADV F2 and F3 fighters.
Decal stripes need to be cut to
size by the modeller matching the pattern as shown on the upper pattern drawing. Some
extra lengths are provided. On the sheet are also NO
STEPS in white and the alternative NO
"foot" STEP symbols as also sometimes seen on ADV Tornado's.
Sheet #1 is essential on all Tornado ADV F2 and F3 schemes. Decals are sufficient for one model with the stripes.

A model has not been made in this Saudi scheme.
From 1966 Saudi Arabia acquired for its air force E.E. Lightnings. These had as most Royal Air Force aircraft a natural metal scheme with various metal shades. Some 35 mk.53 were acquired which was a F.6 derivative (with thus a larger wing with kinked leading edge and larger belly).
This 1/32 scale sheet has roundels and squadron markings for RSAF Lightning mk.53:
[1] Saudi Arabia Air Force, F.53, conversion unit, 53-693, “L”

[3] Saudi Arabia Air Force, F.53, no. 2 squadron, “227”
NOTE: extra numbers and codes are provided for other Saudi Lightnings. Decals are to finish one model.
Natural metal scheme with various metal shades. The Lightnings had old style roundels and swords. Use stencilling and walk way stripes from the kit. Many aircraft had a white background behind some of the stencillings, these are on the decal sheet as option to the kit decals. On the sheet are also a few stencillings with arabic texts. No details are known, photos may reveal these. Look for more info at the PDF below.
Apply black walk way stripes as per kit. 2x5 black arabic texts for the walk ways are provided although it is not clear if these were always applied.
