Yes, they are finer than the ones in the Starstrutter. You would
want to cut them up, at least to replicate the real thing. Here's a
challenge: Use the wood grain decals on Pegaus' Roland D.VI. In
case you're wondering what the challenge is, the D.VI was built with
wood strips running lengthwise, down the fuselage, the entire length
of the fusleage. In 1/72nd, I would guesstimate each strip to be
four to five inches long, and about 1/8th inch wide! Ohhh...
I will also keep everybody appraised as I work on the Roland D.II...
