Print Scale 72-406 Decal Messerschmitt Bf-109 G-14 Late. Scale 1:72 for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 72-406 waterslide decals are designed for 1/72 scale plastic model kits of the Messerschmitt Bf 109 G-14 (late production). This sheet provides a selection of late-war airframes identified by Werknummer (W.Nr), unit references, and finish notes, including both German WWII Air Force service aircraft and a captured example repainted in RAF colors.

The Bf 109 G-14 combines familiar Gustav airframe lines with late-production details that can vary by factory and batch. In 1/72 scale, this makes it an appealing subject for modelers who want to represent different production sources and field-applied finishes while keeping the build within a consistent aircraft family.

For modelers, this set helps you reproduce specific, documented identities with matching camouflage notes and distinctive markings such as spirals, bands, or training-unit presentation. The decals are listed as universal for 1/72 Bf 109 G-14 kits. Due to multiple small markings and precise placement around the fuselage and tail, it is generally best suited to intermediate and advanced projects.

FAQ

Is this decal set only for the Bf 109G-14, or can it be used on other Gustavs?

The options are specified for late Bf 109G-14 subjects (including G-14/U4 and G-14/R1). If your kit is a different Gustav variant, compare airframe features and decal placement before choosing an option.

Does the sheet include a captured aircraft scheme?

Yes. One option is described as an aircraft carrying an RAF evaluation identity and a repaint in RAF colors, with additional recognition stripe notes.

Are factory and production differences relevant for these options?

Several options reference different production sources and batches (for example Erla, Regensburg, and WNF). Checking small kit details (tail, cowl panels, antenna fit) can help match the selected subject.

What finish helps with small stencil and code alignment in 1/72?

A smooth gloss base coat helps reduce silvering and gives you time to position decals accurately. Apply larger items first, then add smaller markings after the main decals have fully set.
