Recent additions to the range of Euro Decals from Fantasy Printshop include North American F-100D Super Sabre Collection Pt. 1, offering markings for a quartet of eye-catching Super Sabres in 1:48 and 1:72.

Each set arrives in a zip-lock bag and contains national and individual markings spread over two sheets, with full colour painting guides for each scheme. 

The quality is excellent, as we've come to expect from Fantasy Printshop, and the printing is flawless in the sample sets. The items are thin and glossy, with the crystal clear carrier film trimmed tightly around each design except where it's used to group multiple elements or make the application of very spindly items easier. 

Despite the reduction in scale, the 1:72 sheet shows identical detail to its larger companion. The sheet of individual markings is laid out identically, but the national insignia have been rearranged. 

The sets feature the following colour schemes:

1. F-100D s/n 56-3433, 352nd TFS, 354th TFW, Myrtle Beach AFB, South Carolina, 1959

1. F-100D s/n 56-3433, 352nd TFS, 354th TFW, Myrtle Beach AFB, South Carolina, 1959

4. F-100D s/n 55-3773, 615th TFS, 401st TFW, England AFB, Louisiana, 1958

The F-100 tends to be relatively  overlooked as a modelling subject compared with it's legendary predecessor the F-86, so it's great to see Euro Decals release this set in 1:48 and 1:72. Excellent news for anyone building a "Hun" is that Fantasy Printshop have also just released Part 2 of the F-100 Collection, offering another set of four equally attractive colour schemes.

Many thanks to Fantasy Printshop for providing the sample sets.
