Default RE: Finishing for a TF GS P-51D


ORIGINAL: rlemaster

From the pictures, what I have is definitely too large. I'm going to check with the people I bought them from to make sure they didn't send the wrong decals but the correct instruction set (that's the only place the 1/5 scale is written).

In either case, there are some differences. For example, the picture showing the hatch just above the trailing edge of the wing on the fuselage that says ''Coolant Vent'' on the pictures you show are worded as ''Coolant Filler'' on mine. Could that be a difference between British and English wording or something? But if I put both of those on that hatch from these decals, I'd have to make that hatch something like 2 x 2.5 inches. Much larger than it should be from the visuals.

Frets, is that p-51 a 1/5 scale?

Thanks,
Russ
May be a little late for this but graphics I put on my 1/5 mustang are from Aerotech.com and the fuse. star is 6" and the wing stars are 7". Cindy produces scale to size and they look very close in size to the full size plane. They are dry transfer by the way and look like their painted on. Leroy
