Xtradecal has released a new decal sheet covering a colourful special scheme for an RAF C-130J Hercules. This will be suitable for the Italeri kit.

A bonus set of decls is included for a 1/72 scale Eurofighter Typhoon FGR.4.

Details of the two aircraft are as follows:

• Lockheed C-130J Hercules C.5 'ZH883' of 47 Squadron, Royal Air Force based at RAF Brize Norton, UK, 2016. This aircraft was in a patchy finish of old and new NATO Green.

• Includes Bonus Typhoon FGR.4 IX Squadron in overall Camouflage Grey.

Instructions for the decal sheet are in full colour across one folded double-sided A4 sheet. Both side views plus upper and lower views are provided both the schemes.

Colour notes are offered, along with model paint callouts for Xtracolor enamels and Xtracrylix acrylics.

As usual, the decals are beautifully printed and feature thin carrier film.

This new Xtradecal release will be ideal to add that unique finishing touch to your 1/72 scale Hercules and Typhoon FGR.4 kits.

Thanks to Hannants for the review sample
