Zero77 Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Decals or masks? I think the size varies depending on the aircraft they're painted on. But Maketar does most of the german and / or british markings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happy1 Posted July 8, 2014 Author Share Posted July 8, 2014 I want to make my own masks I mostly build fighters I tried Maketar masks but did't care for them so I desided to try and make my own. Thanks Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Lund Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 With regards to Luftwaffe the size varied according to the aircraft it was used on. I remember seeing a list, but cannot find it. Once you know the size, this link should enable you to construct letters, balkenkreuz and swastika of correct proportions. http://www.luftarchiv.de/index.htm?/flugzeugbau/kenungen.htm I have far less knowledge about the English and American standards, but I do have the standard of the various Star-and-Bar variants http://www.bowersflybaby.com/stories/army_paint.html For English http://www.homepages.mcb.net/bones/Aviation/roundels/RAF_Roundels.htm Do you have a vinyl cutter and what software do you plan to use to do this. I've just gotten a cutter and plan to do some work on this - perhaps we can cooperate ? Mal_Belford and happy1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
