J-Bots decal has come out with a new sheet that is sure to appeal to airliner modelers as well as modellers with an interest in the Canadian Air Force.  This decal sheet give you the option of building one of 8 or more of these CAF jets.  The paint scheme has changed over the years but photos and instructions about these general changes are included in the instruction sheet.  There are enough markings included to do any of the paint schemes these jet have worn.

The level of detail and colours of these decals is quite good on the 1/100 example before me.  These are not silk screened decals, so you will have to cut them from the backing paper but this isn't a big deal.  Also.....you have to be careful not to scratch the decals as they are more delicate than regular decals.  You've really got to see the art work on this one to believe it....very nice indeed. 

This sheet is available in 1/100, 1/144.  If you look carefully there is a "chrome" around the Canadian flag ......only ALPS printed decals can do justice to metallic colours such as this.  On this decal sheet it looks like real chrome, although the picture can't capture the look of the chrome.  The decal sheet also includes all stencils to do the complete aircraft. 

Below you can see the two pages of colour instruction sheets.  These instruction sheets are very complete and should help to explain where all the decals need to be placed.  I highly recommend these decals to anyone wanting to add one of these sleek looking CAF jets.  I'd like to thank J-Bot Decals for the review sample.
