Dana F Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Modelers, I'm looking for a set of MIG-15 decals in 1/32. I've seen some, but none are markings for the Soviet air force...which I find quite strange. Does anyone know if this is avaliable? Did I miss it somewhere? Thanks.

Gene Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Hi Dana, It is strange, all the aftermarket decals avoid the original country flying the MiG-15--even within the kits. One did not however, see this link and the photo below: https://www.largescaleplanes.com/reviews/review.php?rid=858 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Ray Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 I didn't know TAC Scale Dynamics made a full-sized kit! Where the heck was I?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark P Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Ray: Tac Scale made this kit long before Trumpeter did. I believe it was the last item Tac Scale did before selling much of their products to CAM. I don't know if the MiG-15 was among the molds sold however.

Gene Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 If CAM has extras of the decal sheet--there's a little market for them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark P Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Perhaps an e-mail to CAM to ask him about possible decals would be in order. Mark Proulx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Checked with Armagan of CAM; he indicates that the MiG-15 was not part of the deal and is not able to help at this time. So the decals may not exist. The stars are not much of a problem (surely something from a MiG-3 or P-40 could work), but the unit numbers usually have a characteristic font style with outlines of various thicknesses depending on which factory they were from etc.--not impossible but more challenging to represent.

Mark P Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 How about asking Data Decals. They have run Polls here on LSP looking for future projects. Perhaps am e-mail to them asking if they plan on doing any MiG-15 markings. A link to their site can be found on LSP in the manufacturers listing.

Dana F Posted September 3, 2004 Author Share Posted September 3, 2004 Has anyone emailed Data per Mark's suggestion? I don't want to if someone else has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Yes, I have -- however, Data Decals is running a poll to see interest in various subjects and at the bottom has a window for comments or suggestions; the more he gets, the better!
