First Look
Here is the latest release from Caracal Models designed for the Hobby Boss 1/48 A-29/EMB-314 Super Tucano kit. The decals provide the colorful markings for the Brazilian Air Force's 'Smoke Squadron' aerial demonstration team. These markings replicate the A-29 in the 2014 show season. Below is an image of the Smoke Squadron's previous mount, the T-27 (predecessor to the A-29) but showing off those colors.
The markings are nicely printed (by Cartograf) and provide all of the distinctive markings for one example. For more information about this set and the other releases from Caracal Models, visit their website at http://caracalmodels.com.
My sincere thanks to Caracal Models for this review sample!
