Color 3D interior decals for the cockpit of the Ka-52 attack helicopter in 1:72 scale, built to the Dream Model kit.
Responsibility details are not available.
The Kamov Ka-52 is a Russian two-seat attack helicopter with coaxial contra-rotating rotors, which is why it has no tail rotor. The crew sits side by side rather than in tandem, so the cockpit is wide and the instrument panels in it take up a large area. Even in the small 1:72 scale, more is visible under the glazing than bare plastic from the box can offer.
The set brings three-dimensionally printed color interior decals on decal paper. They cover the instrument panels, the side panels and other surfaces of the cockpit. The elements have a three-dimensional relief and carry finished colors including the markings, so painting tiny instruments with a brush, which is practically impossible in this scale, falls away. It is made for the Ka-52 kit from Dream Model in 1:72 scale.
The elements are printed on decal backing paper: cut the part out, leave it in lukewarm water for about fifteen seconds and slide it off the paper into place. It has no adhesive layer of its own, so first paint the cockpit surfaces, let them dry thoroughly and go over them with gloss varnish (Future or Klear, Tamiya X-22), or the element will not hold. Do not use a decal softener or a decal fixer, as the chemistry would attack the printed resin. In 1:72 scale the parts are genuinely tiny, so cut them out with a sharp blade close to the edge of the printing, slide them off the paper with blunt-jawed tweezers after soaking and work in good light, ideally with a magnifier. Press them down only lightly so that the relief is not crushed.
The set suits modelers who want a legible cockpit even in the small scale. It calls for no cutting into the plastic and no sanding, but it does take a steady hand and patience with tiny elements.
The kit, paints and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
