Looks good

They do look good,I've recently used their Mustang decals and they are every bit as good as they look.

If these are successful maybe some WWII Harvard markings will folllow. I'm thinkng about the ones with the huge numbers on the side.

[Dave Homewood]

Yes and some OTU and fighter squadron Harvard markings from WWII would undoubtedly be welcomed too by modellers

This is from the latest Ventura mail-out:

Hello everyone,

A new set of decals covering RAAF P-40s in 72nd scale is now available. The subjects include an 86 Squadron P-40M with a Disney "Pluto" cartoon on the nose.

Better still, the sheet is priced at NZ$10.90.

The new RNZAF Harvard sheets are selling very quickly so, if you need them in 72nd or 48th scale, it would be a good idea to order yours soon.
