Cold War aircraft refurbishing - part 1

A recently arrived gift of some 1/300 scale Cold War toys (thanks Alan!) prompted a long overdue stocktake in my boxes of aircraft. After some paintwork repairs I delved into the decal box and was able to smarten up a few models. Here we have RAF Harriers, Tornado and Jaguar, along with a West German Tornado. 
 
The exercise prompted me to order more decals - more on this after they arrive.

  1. Where do you get your decals from Tim? I often end up hand paint g aircraft markings, but decals look so much better.

    Thanks. Not all my own paintwork!

    I’ve accumulated a selection over the years, from various sources. I recently ordered some from Flight Deck Decals, who I’ll mention in a forthcoming post.

  4. I find refurbishing to be very satisfying. I like the battle damaged and repaired look that it can give to models.

    Regards, Chris.
