Title: Litvaks decals Post by: Dave on May 24, 2007, 06:44:31 PM I'm looking for the decals of 'white 44', the Yak-1 of lilya litvak, in 1/72 scale. As of yet NO luck.
Does anyone know where I might purchase them? If they exist? Also i just bought the Kopro Yak-1b(for this same pupose), is it any good? :-[ Title: Re: Litvaks decals Post by: John Thompson on May 24, 2007, 09:21:49 PM Litvyak's Yak-1 is a very popular subject for modelbuilding - I'm certain these were included in one of the releases of Amodel's 1/72 Yak-1, and one or two aftermarket sheets as well (an old Travers sheet, now very hard to find, was one of them, although the colour of the numerals might have been yellow on that sheet). I'll check when I get home and see if I have the Amodel kit I'm thinking of to confirm that (IIRC, it was called "Yak-1 late" or something like that).

It appears I could have bought the more 'expensive' a-model kit and got the decals thrown in, now I have to settle for the kopro.
Which might suck and I cant find those decals separately on hannants. Maybe on the off chance the kopro has the white 44 decals? :o Title: Re: Litvaks decals Post by: lape2002 on June 05, 2007, 03:40:44 AM I can help you with that one Dave, I have decals for Litvak's plane which came in the Kopro Yak-1 Early kit.
contact me at viclape82@hotmail.com if you're interested. Cheers, Victor Title: Re: Litvaks decals Post by: Dave on June 07, 2007, 06:37:03 PM Ah, thanks very much for the offer. However I have just ordered a Yak-1b (early) from hannants ;D, with Litvyaks decals included. Sorry to trouble you :-[. I had a Kopro yak-1/m kit but it was unbuildable ::) and had no litvyak decals
Cheers, Dave. |
