DACO Decals, 1/72 scale

Reviewed by Mick Evans

HyperScale is proudly supported by Squadron.com

Daco Decals has released a fine quality decal sheet depicting schemes for Belgian F-84F Thunderstreak and RF-84F Thunderflash of 1, 2, 3, 23, 27, 31, 42 and the combined Squadrons of the Belgium Air Force.  The decals are superbly printed with good colour saturation and excellent register.  As usual the carrier film is ultra thin and my experience with the Daco Decals that I have used in the past is that the decals will snuggle down into the surface detail well under a coat of clear.

Markings are provided for 9 aircraft in the standard NATO camouflage of Dark Sea Grey, Dark Green upper Surfaces and PRU Blue lower surfaces.  Nose, wing tips and tail colour markings are detailed for F-84F Thunderstreak and RF-84F Thunderflash of 1, 2, 3, 23, 27, 31, 42 and the combined Squadrons.

The squadron markings and serial numbers are provided as decals.

The large white codes are not supplied with this set, but they are available separately from DACO.

If you do not feel like painting the complex special markings, DACO also offers a set of separate decals, "Sqn Nose & Tail Colours + Special Demo paint schemes"

The set includes all the data decals required to complete one aircraft and reinforcing plates for the fuselage.

Overall, a stunning sheet by Daco Decals.

Thanks to Daco for the samples
