HMAS Choules (L100) & Bay Class LSD 1-2400 Clear
This 1-2400 scale clear waterslide deck decal represents HMAS Choules and the Bay-class landing ship dock design from which she originated.
Decal Information
The decal reproduces the visible deck and helicopter-deck markings for HMAS Choules and the Bay class and is printed on a clear background so the modeler's painted deck color remains visible. The deck markings and hull numbers should be cut and positioned carefully to match the miniature.
Model Compatibility
This 1-2400 scale deck decal is sized for the GHQ Bay-class miniature. Miniatures from other manufacturers may differ in deck dimensions, weapons placement, or superstructure footprint, so test-fit before application.
