Like most modellers, I've used plenty of silk screens decals, but I've never used decals printed on an Alps printer.  I've seen a few Alps decal sheets and they can be quite nice quality, but when I saw these Mike Grant Decals I must confess to being totally stunned how nice they are.  These decals are crisp clearly printed and very well done....even the smallest stencil data is readable on the 1/48 example I have before me.  Now these are Alps printed decals, so that means cutting the individual decals from the one piece of clear decal sheet, but considering the extremely high quality of the printing on these decals......I have no problem with them not being silk screen decals like most decals are.  There are 3 pages of instruction sheets that tell the history of this plane and include many tips to make an accurate model.  It is obvious the instruction sheets were very well thought out.  All in all a very fine product that I look forward to using. 

The quality of this decal sheet is flawless and it comes in 1/72, 1/48 and 1/32 scale.
