Does anyone know of any company that makes Tank markings for either an Austrian M-47 or
a Danish M-41 "refit", this should include national insignia too. I have a couple of ideas of making
these two versions but have never seen markings for them

There is an Austrian company "HSV" which does 1/35 decals for Austrian AFV.
This was the good news.
This company is runned by an individual and distribution is a mess. especially as the only 2 shops in Austria where you could purchase this stuff have closed.
Nevertheless HSV is looking for a distributor to start things moving again.
I am also not sure if HSV has the right roundel in program. The have only the white outlined one, but I think M47 had the red circle, white triangle ones.
But you could use some aircraft decals from www.ipms.at for this purpose. look at their scaleshop.
HSV has also turret numbers and tactical markings.

together with 2 friends I was requested this week from IPMS to prepare decals for Austrian AFV's from 1955-present.

I am not quite sure how to get the date, but something is developing


how patient are u???
