Oh bollocks I've done it again... :headslap:

The decal sheet I've ordered is in 1/48th not 1/72nd. Bugger... :hmm:

Then you will just have to order a kit that fits the decals! Win, Win...
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

LOL! Well I have in fact ordered a 1/72 sheet direct from Print-Scale, so if anyone fancies some Iranian F-5 decals, let me know.

I also picked up this kit the other day - mainly to use as a guide as I'm going to have to re-scribe the flying controls on this PM kit and buying the italeri kit was cheaper than some 1/72 F-5A plans. I also need a template to scratch-build some pylons.

It comes with some nice decal options.

I also found this old Airfix F-5E kit in the back of my local model shop, so it came home with me.

All I need to do is get an RF-5A from somewhere and I've got the whole set :headslap:

Cheers!
