Decales Global

T

his month we have a

selections of Boeing

airliners operated

by various airliners from

around the world with one

thing in common I have

never heard of any of them!

One thing to note is that

the decals in this sheet come

with an overall carrier film

and you need to trim the decals

from the carrier sheet close

to the printed image before

applying them to your model.

CONCLUSION

Another interesting selection

of schemes that confirm Decales

Global seem to be trying to

produce decal for every airline

existing over the last 20-30

years no matter how small.

To order these decals visit

thank Greg Joy for supplying

the review samples.

Begemot

A

nother new sheet from

Begemot for current

Russian hardware, this

time the humped spine Mig 29SMT.

This variant was not a success

with the order from Algeria

being cancelled when only half

of the order had been delivered.

These were returned to Russia

and with the rest of order were

assigned 14th Fighter Regiment.

So it is not really surprising that

we only have 12 decal options,

though the decal sheet still has

over 300 individual images.

CONCLUSION

Though not a major success,

the Mig-29SMT certainly has a

distinctive shape that makes it

stand out in a line up of Fulcram’s.

In the UK the Begemot range

is available from Hannants

and I thank Begemot for

supplying us with

the review sample.
