Fantasy Printshop | Euro Decals ED-32132 North American F-100D Super Sabre Collection Part 2
Reviewed by Iain Ogilvie
This is a follow-up set to 'Part 1' that we reviewed last year and provides another 4 colourful natural metal options for all those Trumpeter F-100D kits lurking in peoples stash piles.
As with other Fantasy Printshop decals that we have reviewed, the print quality appears top notch, as we've come to expect from Fantasy Printshop, with good colour density and perfect register, along with a thin and absolutely minimal varnish layer.
I've recently used a set of Fantasy Printshop decals on my build of the Flying Start Models Slingsby T31B TX.3 Cadet glider - and they behaved flawlessly.
Two large sheets are provided, one for the individual aircraft designs, and one for the generic national markings and stencils.
The main sheet is roughly A4 in size - and very colourful:
The 'generic sheet:
As with other sheets in the range, printing is on a blue ground making it easier to see all the white printed areas.
