    Does the set include an extra sheet with the name WOLF OF BADENOCH on it, for the Sherman V? I ask because Johan Lexell, the man behind Star Decals, added that for reprints of the 1:35 scale version after I pointed out the omission to him some years ago (and sent me a complimentary copy when I ordered another set of decals entirely from him). BTW, for that Sherman, the registration number that’s only partially legible should only go on the right-hand side, not on both, and probably only if you’re building the model as a wreck rather than when it was actually in use.

    I don't think so, but in 1/72 some of the lettering is too small to make out!

      The name was on the appliqué armour plates on the hull sides. You can just make it out in the photo I posted, though it’s hard to see because somebody cleaned a paintbrush on the tank

                Nah it’s just a Group Build not a life or death situation.

                    Brilliant kit! 1992 Lotus 107, the last F1 car I ever built.

                    Shame about the unreliable Ford HB V8 otherwise they could have broke into the top four in the WCC

                      My replacement nozzle for my Ghaaleri GHAD-68 airbrush nozzle just arrived. I had to order it from the manufacturer themselves and it arrived two days later!
                      Let's hope I don't lose this one also haha!

                        No, they wouldn’t All of them are markings for vehicles as they appeared five months later, at the other landing that breached the Atlantikwall.

                          I also ordered a spare needle (just in case) and this is how it arrived just now. (Thanks Royal Mail)

                              Another diorama purchase. Some ivy leaves. I really like this company. Their tree scatter is lovely (as can be seen on my Bocage dio).
