Dennis Buley Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Recently, I purchased the 1/48th Tamiya Korean War Mustang with the intention of using one of the set of markings in the kit. However, I heard that the kit decals are prone to disintegrate in water. Has anybody had this happen to them? Does anyone make an aftermarket set of decals for a Korean War F-51D; I've looked, but can't find any. TIA Dennis Buley Quote Link to post Share on other sites
David Walker Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 (edited) Aeromaster made a couple of sheets but they're currently OOP. Here's one of them, 48-099. The other was 48-100: http://www.eaglestrikeproductions.com/cgi-...;dclimg=ad48099 Edited June 24, 2007 by David Walker Quote Link to post Share on other sites
