"Initial" Tiger I in sPz-Abt. 501 DAK Service
1:16th Decal Sheet ELADC1604
Review by Terry Ashley
The sheet is quite small as far as 1:16 sheets go but again has the printing nicely done with good colour register and the carrier film which has a matt finish is cropped very close to the printed image to aid in application.
Included are the large turret numbers for each vehicle plus the sPz-Abt. 501 Tiger logo and unit markings plus four balkenkreuz to finish off the markings.
Also included is a large instruction sheet with colour illustrations of the three vehicles with a colour side view showing the cam scheme with the colours used shown with RAL numbers plus a few scrap views of the front and rear for the decal placement there.
The colour instructions are also downloadable in .pdf format from the Backyard Armor site.
Conclusion:
Another well printed and presented decal sheet for a variation on the Tamiya
Tiger I with the kit requiring the appropriate modifications for the
initial version.
