PYN-up Decals is a growing decal line from Meteor Productions, the PYN standing
for "Pick Your Noseart". So what's different about these decals? First, they've
selected more intricate subjects, some of which have been done by other
manufacturers. Second, the markings that are solid color by definition (national
markings, ID codes, etc.) are provided as standard decals. Even the noseart
backgrounds are provided as standard decals. Finally, the noseart is printed
with a difference process which allows for photo-quality gradations of color
instead of the pixel-dithered colors we're accustomed to in normal decals. The
result is a stunning rendition of noseart that has not been mass-produced before!
This set covers two A-20 Havocs:
- A-20J, 43-10127, 647 BS/410 BG, 6Q-B, 'Mama Lou'
- A-20J, 43-22022, 644 BS/410 BG, 5D-G, 'Bill'

If you're looking to dress up your AMT glass-nose A-20J kit,
here is some colorful noseart of some very colorful aircraft.
These are very limited production decals, with only 300 examples printed for each
subject. You'd better get yours while the getting is still good!
Highly recommended!
My sincere thanks to Meteor Productions for this review sample!
