1/48 "lozenge" decals for Eduard Albatros DVa...2 sets to each sheet!
Minor alterations to either kit parts or decals are required :
1/48th Albie decals for the Eduard DV/DVa scaled down from the popular 1/32 set based on the accurate WNW kit.
As a result a couple of small tweaks are necessary:
1) If not cutting ailerons and elevator from the kit for more realistic positioning you'll need to remove the decal rib tapes along the hinge edges.
2) the leading edge rib tape on undersurface of bottom wings needs to be added from the rib tape decal (white backed) providers
3) radiator cutouts need to be enlarged towards trailing edge and "fold down" tapes on sides removed
4) Add tapes where required sliced from supplied "white backed" material
See reference photos, cut decal exactly to size and offer to kit parts before adjusting and application.
Two different sets to a sheet.
