I have a Gotha tucked away in my closet but am really worried about the decals, as they are lozenge and I just know it's not going to be an enjoyable experience. Ah well..

Check out Whiterook's Roden Gotha if you haven't already...it's in the 6 month group build thread I'm pretty sure. I did a little research concerning the availability of aftermarket lozenge camo decal and found that Eduard have upper and lower surface colours available in 1/48 at least. I'd be surprised if there was nothing around for 1/72 as well. Eduard are easily Googled and for WW1 builders, they make excellent products and kits. I won their 1/72 Dr.1 and Fokker EIV in a raffle...they look beautiful.
