He does a good discount for members and his decals are spot on.
I know painting is more authentic but decals done correctly probably look a lot better than painted on gone slightly wrong.
Maybe somebody has used them ? After all, everyone uses decals on the 400F2 tanks that I know of.

That's only the stripes though but my experience is painting the black on isn't too difficult. You can get jet black base-coat from paint suppliers (like BMW use on cars). The base-coat dries matt/satin but as soon as you hit it with decent 2k clear it shines beautifully.
