Edge decals ¶¶¶¶¶ Reviewed by We have reviewed Cutting
Edge Decals sheet #32058 recently. In that review, a number
of inaccuracies were pointed out, particularly regarding the F4U-4
from the Olathe Naval Reserve Training Unit. Well, I can´t claim
our share of responsability on this, but I just received a correction
sheet free of any charge from Meteor Productions (where I purchased
mine) addressing many of the mentioned faults. Basically, the correction
consists of a new painting/decal placement instructions and a small
sheet with replacement decals.  The new CED 32058 cover. The instructions
now call GSB for the outer flap of the right wing both upper outer
wings. The horizontal stabilizer are also correctly shown and even
the different wheel hubs colors are pointed out in the instructions.
Another correction are the panels of the exhaust recesses areas, accurately
showing the dark color (black?) on both sides of the aircraft.  The corrected painting/placement instructions.
The only decal in the sheet brings the K 5 code letters to be applied on the inner bottom wings (instead on the landing gear door, as called in the original instructions). CED also corrected the size of the codes and replaced one of the black #5 by the code letter K.  The only decals in the correction sheet. As for the Blacksheep Corsairs depicted
in the sheet, no corrections were made, but I still haven´t
found a photo of VMF-214 Corsairs wearing the squadron´s logo
on the cowling... No mention was made about the red trim on the propeller
hub and the tail cone, neither. As I said in the review
of the original issue, it is possible that CE has used
photos of a different time to design this sheet. |
