Print Scale 48-008 Decal Mig-21 Fishbed Scale 1:48 for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 48-008 is a 1:48 waterslide decal set for the Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21 “Fishbed”. The selection spans multiple MiG-21 variants and operators, including Soviet units and export users, with finishes ranging from natural metal to later camouflage schemes.

The set is designed for builders who want variety: commemorative and award-style markings, unit emblems, and aircraft numbers are paired with guidance material for camouflage and stencil placement. This makes it suitable for both clean natural-metal builds and weathered, operational-looking aircraft.

For modelers: Confirm your kit variant (F-13, PFV, bis, SMT, etc.) before choosing an option. Apply larger numbers and national markings first, then finish with smaller items using mild setting solution.
