SPACE set – three-dimensional 3D decals for interior detail

SPACE are modern, three-dimensional self-adhesive decals produced with 3D printing. They combine realistic relief (raised structure) with a full, multi-colour print, so that details such as instrument panels, side consoles or other interior elements gain both depth and legible colour at once.

SPACE elements are transferred onto the model like decals: once peeled from the backing they are applied to the appropriate surfaces and pressed down. They require no painting or forming, which makes them a very quick and convenient way to finish a detail attractively.

About the aircraft – Focke-Wulf Fw 190A-8:

The Focke-Wulf Fw 190 was one of the most important German fighters of the Second World War, designed by Kurt Tank's team. Unlike the inline-engined Bf 109, it was powered by a powerful BMW 801 radial, giving the aircraft excellent performance at low and medium altitudes, a high roll rate and a rugged airframe.

The A-8 version of 1944 was the most numerously produced variant of the entire "Anton" family. It received an additional fuel tank or a boost installation (MW-50/GM-1), reinforced armament and the ability to carry various field-conversion kits (Rüstsätze). The Fw 190A-8 fought both in the Defence of the Reich against Allied bomber raids and on the Eastern Front as a fighter and ground-attack aircraft.

Original specifications (Fw 190A-8):

• Length: approx. 9.0 m
• Wingspan: approx. 10.5 m
• Crew: 1
• Powerplant: BMW 801D-2 radial engine, approx. 1,700 hp
• Maximum speed: approx. 655 km/h
• Service ceiling: approx. 11,400 m
• Armament: 2 × 13 mm machine guns and 4 × 20 mm cannon (typical)
