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 the Tamiya 1/72
P-47 kit. 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!
