Print Scale 72-216 Decal German Mistel Composites Part 2 Scale 1:72 for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 72-216 waterslide decals are designed for 1/72 scale (also written as 1:72) WWII aircraft projects featuring German Mistel composite aircraft (Part 2). This sheet supports late-war composite subjects by providing code letters, numeric identifiers, and national markings for both the upper fighter component and the lower Ju 88 component.

Mistel combinations paired a Focke-Wulf Fw 190 with a modified Junkers Ju 88 airframe, creating a distinctive two-aircraft configuration. Because the composite involved two complete airframes with different marking positions and sizes, a dedicated decal set helps keep codes and insignia consistent across the full build.

For modelers: the set is listed as universal for 1/72 kits. Mistel projects usually require careful alignment, staged decal work, and planning around struts/connection points. This sheet is best suited to experienced builders assembling two coordinated aircraft with matching codes and unit-style identifiers.

FAQ

Do I need two separate kits to build a Mistel project in 1/72?

Typically, yes. A Mistel build combines an upper fighter and a lower Ju 88 airframe, so most modelers plan around two kits (or a dedicated composite kit) depending on their chosen option.

Are markings provided for both the upper and lower aircraft components?

Yes. The included options list codes for the Fw 190 component and the Ju 88 component, allowing a coordinated composite appearance.

Are technical stencils included?

A technical stencil selection is shown as part of the set contents. Many modelers apply stencils after the main codes/insignia to reduce handling during placement.

Is this decal set suitable for beginners?

This sheet is generally better for experienced builders because Mistel projects involve two airframes, alignment points, and a higher total number of markings to plan and apply.
