Thanks for sharing this. I did not realize that the Centauro requires so many stencils. Do you know each set (2 large sheets and 1 small sheet) can cover how many vehicles?

And here is the PE set for the Spanish Centauro. Probably 95% is usable for the other variants.
Also I am interested in what we have to buy separately and is not included but shown in the pictures.

PS: Which company made Resin wheels with the Michelin embossing on? All resin wheels I have seen so far the Michelin embossing is missing. One company made it with it so far, but I cannot recall the company.

Good news from Echelon (as usual ) I'll be placing an order for this set!

Hi Paul,

There are two complete set of Stencils and Placards provided (enough for two complete builds) . Note that one of the marking options used two emblems (one from each piece), other than that, you can duplicate two same vehicles from the entire set. Take note that if you're building other Spanish vehicles (BMR, VEC, etc) from a known Spanish resin kit producer, a number of the emblems from the set can be used (including the Lusitania 8 crossbones). That's why I've included the Skull markings in various configurations - plus, in reality, the Skull and crossbones are painted from two separate stencils. That's why the crossbones are never always in the same position under the Skull... And sometimes they are reflected (flipped image). Check your references for exactness.

Thanks Lawrence,

That's very informative and useful for my build.
