I got a plastic kit for a Heinkel He 162 from a German supplier - the swastikas were cut from the sheet of transfers. However, there were other national markings - including RAF! - from the type's post-war test flights in various countries. "German Edition" in that kind of kit means no swastikas. nm Here is link to a guy who made his own transfers for the German WWI warship "Pommern". He used "Experts Choice white decal sheet (item 120) for an ink-jet printer" I've never heard of it before, but obviously it must exist. www.kaisersbunker.com/pommern/hull3/3hull24.htmTo construct your own swastika in an imaging program (eg. Paint) should not be all that hard, as it is all straight lines at right angles. The hard part would be to print the white border of the swastika. How do you print a white colour on a BJ printer

Maybe you left a clue earlier in your post - "white decal sheet"?
Thanks for the info.

Hi boys, For storage reasons, I'll have to do some “autumn” cleaning in my album organizer soon. Please fill free to download the Arados I posted earlier on your pc as I'll be deleting them in about two weeks. Cheers.

The "white" decal paper means that the bit that slides off is white! For more details of fixing, etc., see www.micromark.com/html_pages/instructions/decal_instruction.htmIt appears to be only made in the USA, and whilst 5 sheets or so cost about $10, the shipping costs to the UK are about $35!!!! Have not been able to find any source of supply in the UK. (pity)
