Santa Cruz Decals is a company in Portugal that specializes in decals of the Portuguese Air Force.  They have a variety of decals in 1/72, 1/48 and 1/32. 

This 1/72nd scale decal sheet is for a Portuguese T-6.  The particular plane featured in this decal sheet has a shark mouth  and black mane painted on the nose.

The markings are quite good with national markings and all the special markings for the nose.  The entire plane is baremetal overall with yellow fuselage band and yellow wing tips.  You get enough decals to make one plane.  

The printing quality of these silk screened decals is beautiful and perfectly in register.  The printing quality is also very sharp and crisp.....this would make an attractive and rare looking T-6 model when it is complete.

My thanks to Santa Cruz Decals for the review sample.  Check out their website for other interesting Portuguese related aircraft decals.
