moeggo Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 I just brought Hasegawa 1/48 BF109E "Hahn" kit-09746, open I just opened it and looked at their decals for this kit and the white is white!!!!!!!! Have they change their decal supplier??? Fingers crossed this means not more yellow-cream/white shade of white anymore! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Lately the new release or re-pop releases have been very usable. They are printed mostly by Cartograph. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thom Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Cartograph-printed decals rock my world - more suppliers need to use them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RookieLSP Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 are they now also thin?TIA The ones I've used from Cartograph have been pretty thin. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EricYY Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 the decals of JT93 and both B-26 are "white", after these kits, near all of hasegawa decals(new release only) become "white" those re-released regular items are still with ivory decals Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ron Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 I used the kit decals on my Spit, they were also Cartograph. They are really nicely done and set down nicely with Micro Sol assuming you gloss coat or future first Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Freddie from LI Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 I have always found Hasegawa's declas to be,..shall we say 'lacking'. That actually being nice. I thought their declas just plain stunk. However, I must say they have gotten much better over the years. T recently built a P-39N and used the kit's decals. I have to say they have been some of the easiest decals to work with. Here is what they looked like on the kit: They looked great and I think I might use kit decals on an upcoming built again.
