![]() The quality of their research is always spot on and I have seen the extent as to how far Zotz go to verify a subject’s proper colours and markings (as you will see in this article later)Ībove is a typical sheet from these sets held against the light so you can see for yourself the thinness of decal and the minimum of carrier film used in these releases. In my time dealing with them, I have never received a bend or damaged sheet. The decal sheets from Zotz always come in a Ziploc plastic bag with a creative cover illustration on card paper which doubles up on the back as an instruction sheet. It’s easy to say “yes they are in register/colour etc.” but harder to actually look into the history of the machines captured in these decals and the men who flew and decorated them. In this review I’ll be referring to the historical context of these decals. I will talk about the specifics of the replication of artwork and decal quality as I review all three sheets. This makes the decals applicable for all kits of that particular aircraft. Zotz have a system of large areas needing to be painted, then their decals are applied over the paint (like a checked nose or a tail with stripes). I will review them all for you here, going into any detail I can find about the aircraft and their pilots as well as an in depth study of the sheets themselves of course!Īll three releases have three schemes apiece and are designed to fit ALL of the 1/32 mustangs out there, as there are no wrap around nose decals to guess on the new kit’s dimensions (as long as that the new kits themselves are to scale). Good timing or good luck have landed on the decal makers’ Zotz from Mexico’s door here, as just about the same time as the announcement of these two kits, Zotz have released THREE new decal sets for the Mustang in 32nd scale. In the wake of the hotly anticipated Tamiya and Zoukei-Mura P-51D Mustang releases in 1/32 scale there has been a raft of products released and announced to compliment what is hoped to be “the ultimate Mustang”. ![]()
