Metabarons flight deck decals

[dedo]

Wish list:

• What I still need is a silhouette of the flight deck of the sculpt of the italian carrier “Aquila”. Does anyone have one? Even though I got two sculpts of the Aquila I can’t scan them due to there huge island (tower part of the ship) and I don’t want to “decapitate” my italian carriers, because they are already painted.

• coloured drawings of Aquila, Kostromitinowa and Graf Zeppelin

…I appreciate any support, there is still a lot to do…

First try of the HMS Illustrious.

In my opinion, the sculpt designer must be somewhat blind…definitely, this sculpt wasn’t build to the dimensions of the original. There were a lot of differences in width and length of the sculpt in comparison to detailled carrier drawings, especially it was a pain to adjust bow and stern.

However, here it is…

USS Wasp with wooden deck and blue strips…. (National Naval Aviation Museum, Pensacola)

Illustrious Class Mk II
Here is the ‘pill-box’ version of the illustrious class. When I tried the former decal version, it occured that the ‘bumps’ on the flight deck (AA-guns) brought some problems about when attaching the decals. Additionally, the island (tower) shape was modified.

Is there a site up where we can purchase the decals for all of the axis and allies?
