Here is an interesting decal sheet for your Mauve or Eduard 1/48 P-40N Warhawk kit from Three Guys Replicas (TGR). This set covers five white-tailed aircraft assigned to the famous 49th Fighter Group that operated in the Pacific Theater:

  • P-40N, #57, 8 FS/49 FG, 1943, as flown by Capt Richard Vodra
  • P-40N, #16, 7 FS/49 FG, 1943, as flown by Lt John Miller
  • P-40N, #7, 7 FS/49 FG, as flown by Lt Joel Paris
  • P-40N, #15, 7 FS/49 FG, 1943, 'Island Dream'
  • P-40N, #45, 8 FS/49 FG, as flown by Lt Marion Felts

The instructions include some nice backround and color information, including profiles of each aircraft and selected views of top and bottom. The decal printing is perfectly in register.

You can purchase this set from your local hobby retailer or order them directly from Squadron Mail Order (www.squadron.com).
