Here's a new hobby company entering the market and their first
product online is this 6"x9" sheet of World War I
5-Color Lozenge Night Camouflage. This offering is targeted
primarily to the recent Roden 1/72 Staaken kit (though this
will work fine with the Contrail kit as well). Needless to
say, as impressive as the Roden kit is out of the box, trying
to replicate that night camouflage would be quite a challenge.
Orion Miniatures has saved you lots of time and grief with
their well-researched colors and, working closely with Microscale,
were able to replicate those colors here with even an application
of 1/72 scale color shading correction applied. Nice touch!
Look for Orion Miniatures to expand their Lozenge coverage
in the future as well as an interesting kit of the 1/48 scale
DH 89A Dragon Rapide. You can read more about this upcoming
kit here.
If Orion's future offerings look as good as this first decal
sheet, we'll be seeing lots of good stuff from this new company
in the future.
