Fantasy Printshop 1/72 Night Fighter Grey Codes
By Chris Banyai-Riepl
Overview
One of my pet peeves for modeling is inconsistent colors in markings. While I can go to great lengths to make sure my Spitfire kits all have the same camouflage colors, when it comes time to apply the roundels and codes, invariably they do not have the same color. Fantasy Printshop has addressed this problem, at least with regards to night fighter codes, with three useful sheets.
The Decals
Next to the Sky codes, the night fighter grey codes are one of the toughest to get to match up. These three sheets eliminate that problem, with plenty of code letters covering all the most common sizes.
FP907 provides codes in 2.5mm, 3mm, 4mm, 5mm, 5.5mm, 6mm, 6.5mm, and 7mm
FP908 provides codes in 7.5mm, 8mm, and 9mm
FP909 provides codes in 10mm, 10.5mm, and 11.5mm

Conclusion
These are great markings to have and will help immensely in making sure your night fighter collection all has similar-looking codes on their sides. My thanks to Fantasy Printshop for the review samples.
