About product

1:72 Gloster E28/39 Pioneer decal set, Clear Prop Models decals

This is not a kit or masks but a stand-alone decal sheet in 1:72 scale for a model of the British experimental Gloster E.28/39 Pioneer aircraft. The decals are of the classic wet type: the trimmed motif is soaked in water, the backing softens and the colored film slides off it onto the model. The set is intended to complete or replace the markings on a finished kit of this machine.

The real subject

The Gloster E.28/39 was the first British aircraft with a jet engine. It came about to a specification that called for an airborne test bed for the new form of propulsion, and it was a small single-seat all-metal low-wing monoplane with nose gear and the engine housed in the fuselage behind the pilot. It was not a combat machine but an experiment that proved the viability of jet propulsion in British practice. The result was an unobtrusive, practically entirely smooth surface, so on a model the quality of the finish and the accuracy of the markings stand out.

How to apply the decals

  • Always clear-coat the ground under a decal with gloss varnish, as silvering occurs on a flat one.
  • Trim the motif as closely as possible, so that the carrier film is as small as it can be.
  • Soak for a few seconds, let it stand on the paper and slide it onto the model.
  • Adjust the position on water, not dry, as a dry film tears easily.
  • Draw the excess water off and use a softener, so that the decal settles into the engraving.
  • Once dry, clear-coat the whole model to the degree of gloss you want.

Who the set is for

For modelers who are building this particular type in 1:72 scale and want markings of better quality than the base sheet in the kit offers, or who need a replacement for a damaged or yellowed sheet. The contents of the sheet and the number of marking variants are given in the instructions supplied with it.

This is a modeling accessory, not a kit. The model, paints and varnish are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It is not. The package holds only the decal sheet. The kit, paints and varnish have to be bought separately.

Air stays trapped under the carrier film, which happens on a flat or rough ground. The answer is gloss varnish under the decal, a softener and drawing the water out from under the film.

Please check the extent of the sheet against the information on the packaging.
