can I use kitworld decals for the victory marks on charles weaver mustang?

[aurelien wolff]

Hello, I ask because kit world has the good victory mark but apparently their decals are judge more harshly online so I'm unsure I should get them for that, the kit I got had the victory marks cut, hence I ask.

Thanks for your answers!

What is the reason for the harsh judging?

online, people claim the decals aren't accurate or too thick

OK. I understand. If the decals markings fit and their appearance is correct there is no reason for not using of them. The thickness of decals maybe a trouble , especially for the smaller scales like the 1/72. Actually it is not the matter of the thickness but of the kind of the paints that were used for printing. Just these are too hard but not thick. Partially it may be improved by using of a decal softener. Also you my use the warm but not hot water for soaking. Certainly other rules for using older or the uncertain decals are still valid.

Build how you want to build and makes you happy.

Ignore rivet counters online.

Not every model has to be accurate down to the last thousandth of a mm.

Just enjoy it.

I ant it to be somewhat accurate to the actual livery at least, I did got the victory mark in the box I got tho so I'm good to do charles weaver plane. I'm the kind of modeller who doesn't fix a innacuracie if it's not visible or that obvious.
