I am working with a graphic artist to have sheets of 1/48 scale Romanian decals produced and want to verify the correct dimensions of the crosses. For example, in the scans below the first set has more short and squat arms compared to the second which are longer and narrower.


Also look at the red circle, in the first set it is much wider -- which is correct? And on the rudder bars, should all three bars be the same width or is it customary that the red bar be wider to conform to the aft section of the rudder? I plan on having sheets made with crosses of three sizes for fuselage, upper and lower wings along with rudder panels that can be cut to conform to a wide variety of aircraft rudders. Once these questions are resolved generic sheets will be made on an ALPS printer at a very reasonable cost if anyone else is interested in acquiring some. For me there are just too many Romanian subjects I want to model and no readily availible good quality graphics availible. While it is not visible in the scan there is a white boarder around each cross.

No standardization posible. As many romanian subjects as many King Mickel cross models for each aircraft type ( in romanian service).
If you want you can start this thread for individual aircraft cross model.
I am sure every one one this forum can help with pictures and color profile published in many aviation magazines.
