I picked these up on Amazon. They seem to work not too bad for doing it by hand.

Had a chat at the Saturday IPMSNSW meeting and have arranged to send the artwork and mask sheets for cutting. We shall see.

Mike Grants decals worked for me, even had some left over although not enough to do another plane

Holy crap!
Individually applied?

Yep, the sheet was a solid decal film so each one was cut out individually and if one was not careful the printing would rub off, but with a little care they worked really well. Unfortunately it seems they are no longer available but Printscale makes some, might be worth a try.

Wow that's a lot of work. Looks great though. Me ??..........I hate decals and they hate me !
