The dotted lines on the photo above are there to protect the decal artwork and are not what you will see on the actual decal sheet.

This new release from airscale gives you scale replacement upgrade decals for the Airfix 1/24 Focke Wulf Fw 190A decal upgrade that includes a stunning representation of the real aircraft’s instruments to enable you to replace the kit panel insert with an authentic, scale alternative.  These decals are suitable for early A model Fw190’s.

The decals are very clearly printed and in perfect register.

The 2 pages of instructions are clear and include all necessary info about how to install this instrument panel decal.  You can also find photos on the airscale website of various instrument panels which will assist you in finishing your instrument panel. 

Each set includes:

  • One piece decals for the main and lower Instrument 

  • Panels plus separate dials for the side console instrumentation

  • Sheet of optically clear replacement simulated instrument glass

  • Fully illustrated instructions

Airscale instrument decals can be used either;

  • Behind kit instrument panel parts, mounted on a backplate
  • Applied on top of a kit panel.  (Decal setting solutions may be required)

With all the larger scale kits being released, not to mention the older 1/24 Airfix kits, it is good to see these new decals being released.  airscale also has an ever growing selection of instrument panel decals if you decide you don't want to use the individual instrument decals provided in this set.  The this gloss plastic sheet will give your instruments the prefect look of real glass.

I would like to thank airscale for providing me with this review sample.

You can buy these and other individual instrument and instrument panel decals directly from the airscale website.
