1:32 German Eurofigher Typhoon TLG 31 Spirit of Oswald Boelcke

The real subject

The Eurofighter Typhoon is a twin-engined multirole combat aircraft of European design with a delta wing and foreplanes ahead of the wing. The Luftwaffe equipped several formations with it, among them the tactical wing designated TLG 31, whose honorary name recalls Oswald Boelcke, the German fighter pilot of the First World War who became known for setting down the rules of air combat.

What the sheet offers

Markings for a model of this aircraft in 1:32 scale. Unit insignia and color elements tied to a particular wing tend to be the only thing that sets an otherwise equally gray aircraft apart from dozens of others, so it pays to work with them carefully. The scope of the sheet, the number of machines covered and the recommended placement of the elements are given in the instructions enclosed by the manufacturer.

Application and care

Finish the model in paint and polish the area under the decal with a gloss varnish, so no light edge appears around the film. Cut the element out closely to the printing, dip it in lukewarm water for a moment and leave it to stand until it begins to slide on its backing. Once it is transferred, blot the water away with a soft cloth, pressing from the center toward the edges on large areas so no bubble is left under the film. Once it is dry, even the surface out with a varnish. Before you soak the sheet, check in the instructions whether it is a self-adhesive version, because a soaked self-adhesive film is ruined beyond recovery.
