Hello

The more attentive among you have noticed that for some time now we have been making changes to our graphic design.

First of all, our logo has changed and now looks like this:

This logo has a modified look for each type of product and so we have divided the decals into three levels.

Basic, for every modeler in green.

Advanced in blue when the decal contains larger elements that require a bit more work to apply the decal.

And expert in gold color, for advanced modelers, when the set contains large elements, there are a lot of them, which makes painting with this set very difficult.

Each time, the appropriate level of decals is our subjective decision and it is ultimately up to the modeler whether he thinks that his skills will allow him to do a given painting. From our experience, we can say that it is usually easier than it initially seems.

In addition, there is the SPECIAL EDITION offer marked in red.

You can read about this decals HERE

In addition, we are developing a dynamic range of masks marked with silver.

and gray for marking masks.

The same color as the logo has also frame in the instructions, and the goods themselves will currently be packed only in A5 and A4 format. It looks much better :)

Separately, we would like to discuss the structure of our product numbering system.

Basically, the catalog number consists of three elements: two letters, numbers indicating the scale, and numbers indicating the project number. It looks like "AA00000" like this.

The letters indicate the type of product:

D - decal

MD - masks with decal

IM - insignia masks

SD - Special Edition decal

MM - plastic model

Then after the letters there are numbers indicating the scale:

144 - 1/144

72 - 1/72

48 -1/48/

32 - 1/32

24 -1/24

The last digits after the scale are the unique project number (except for models that have another consecutive number counting from 001) And so D48233 means a decal in the 1/48 scale with the next project number 233 and if you are interested in this specific painting or set in a different scale, e.g. 1/32, just look for the appropriate catalog number.

By entering 32233 in the search engine, you will find this product as SD32233. The same painting as Special Edition decals Another example MD32180 means a set of masks + decals for the 180 project and if you are interested in such masks in the 1/72 scale, after entering MD72180 you will find out that we do not have such in our offer, and after correcting to D72180 you will find an identical set of decals for the 1/72 scale.

In addition, it may happen that the set has a liter at the end of the catalog number. This means changes in the set compared to the previous version, which, however, does not affect the painting itself, which the decal concerns. A good example here is set 051, which in scales 1/72 and 1/48 has the letter "A" at the end of the number,

and the original first printing is still available in 1/32 scale.

The decals look very different from each other, however, a model made with these decals will ultimately represent the same plane. The difference is that the reprint of this set in scales 1/72 and /1/48 version "A", the operating inscriptions are on a separate sheet, which is also available as project 095

There are sets where the changes are much more marginal, but generally the letter A is to distinguish the set in which the changes were introduced.

The last element we need to discuss is the problem of identifying the scale and catalog number. We have more and more sets in our offer that contain other sets, such as the aforementioned "051A" set. Unfortunately, there are also errors in printing the catalog number and unfortunately we have several such sets, it is incorrectly printed on the clakomania. It is just a small percentage, but it is there. For some time now we have also introduced the catalog number on the instructions, where the set number is marked in the appropriate box and this number is binding. If you have any doubts whether there is a decal, e.g. D72125 or D72137, look at the instructions to see what number is marked there.

This is not the end of changes. Soon we will introduce a number of changes in the shipment of orders, among others we will give up or very much limit the use of the Post Office in shipments. We are at the stage of selecting offers from individual courier companies, which will reduce shipping costs in many cases. We will also introduce discounts and free shipping. Details soon.

This week we will write a few words about our participation in this year's Moson Model Show and a few new products will go on sale.

That's all for today.

Best regards, ModelMaker Team
