A decal sheet in 1:32 scale for the upper and lower wing surfaces of the Fokker D.VII from the licensed production of the Albatros company. Unlike the five-color release this is the four-color version of the lozenge camouflage pattern, so the covering looks different while the coverage is the same. This is not a kit but an accessory for a model.
Preprinted camouflage fabric was made in several versions that differed in the number of shades in the pattern. The four-color and the five-color version were used side by side and on a model they differ in the drawing as well as in the overall tone of the surface, so choosing between them is a matter of the particular machine you are building. Besides the parent plant, the Fokker D.VII was also built under license at Albatros and at the Ostdeutsche Albatros Werke branch, and machines from the individual factories differed in the treatment of the covering, which is why the sheets are made separately.
Once the decals are done, deal with the gloss. A surface covered with large decals always reflects light differently from the paint around it, and if you leave it that way, every edge of the film will give itself away. After drying and rinsing off the adhesive residue, spray the model with a single uniform clear coat over the whole surface, not just over the decals. The fabric covering of First World War aircraft was treated with dope, so a dead flat finish is out of place and a satin level of gloss looks right. Apply the clear coat in several thin layers; a heavy wet coat could blur the pattern.
These are decals, an accessory to a kit. The kit, paints, clear coat and decal softener are not included in the package.
