I am in the process of building my second Hasegawa 1/72 Scale Shinmeiwa PS-1. (I built the first one in 1974, and it has long been retired to the Boneyard). As you would guess, the kit decals are not that good. I am looking for suggestions as to sources for 1/72 Japanese decals suitable for modern JSDF aircraft. There is lots of WW2 stuff out there and some for smaller more modern Japanese A/C but I can’t find anything for larger aircraft.,, Any suggestions where to look?

Thanks for any help,

Joe, while I can't give you any answers, I'll be following this as I'm building one of those same models. I'll be interested in finding out as well.

Thank you for replying. I've come up with a couple of ideas and let you now about them as they pan out. I'm just starting this project, but I'll keep you informed of my progress.

Excellent Joe! I'll be watching to see if you run into the same issue I did. Namely, the lower fuselage is so warped and messed up on my kit that it's gonna take a major effort to fix and probably won't look right when I do. I've attached pics to show what I mean:
