Lifelike Decals 1/48
Republic P-47D Thunderbolt Part 2

Lifelike Decals from Japan turns out some colorful and nicely printed subjects. In this set, we have three distinctive P-47 Thunderbolts that will definitely compliment either the Hasegawa or Tamiya 1/48 P-47 kits. This set is my favorite among the Lifelike P-47 series so far with the nicest rendering of Tarheel Hal in decal form. The blue star fields are logically designed to go together with a minimum of trouble. The color schemes on the other two Thunderbolts are just as nice!

This decal set provides markings for three aircraft:

• P-47D-30-RA, 44-33240, 366 FS/358 FG, IA-N, May 1945, 'Tarheel Hal'
• P-47D-5-RE, 42-8434, 354 FS/355 FG, WR-U, Early 1944, 'Lil Lo'
• P-47D-30-RE, 44-20392, 511 FS/405 FG, K4-S, May 1945

As you can see in the decal image, this set comes complete with a full set of national markings, distinctive unit markings, and a wealth of maintenance stencils. If you're looking for a colorful alternative that isn't from the mainstream Superscale/Eagle Strike/Aeromaster line-up, here is a nice way to be different!

This set is definitely recommended! You can purchase these decals through FlightDecs or directly from Lifelike Decals.

My sincere thanks to Lifelike Decals for this preview!
