Help and Admiration

[wulffo]

Hello all,
I am sorry for starting an otherwise useless post. I would like to build a von Hantelmann DVII and need the decals. Also the Beaulieu DVII (early version) (ie I need flying dagger and the 4d. Also Gabriel and Straehle as well as Bolle and Loewenhart would be of interest.

You boys and your models have been a monsterous inspiration and I can not tell you how much I admire your work. U N B E L I E V A B L E ! I have spent hours looking at the best dioramas site drooling all over myself and now I am back brush and glue in hand after 20 years.

Best regards and many thanks in advance

Greetings Wulffo; Almost every kit of the Fokker D.VII has had the flying sword at one time or another also on the 4D PD decals had them in both 1/72 & 1/48. Several shops handle these. Straelhe and Bolle's can be done with coloured decal film cut in appropriate strips.
