First Look
Lifelike Decals from Japan turns out some colorful and nicely printed subjects. In this set, we have four distinctive B-17 examples in the second installment of a series for your favorite 1/72 Flying Fortress kit.
This decal set provides markings for four aircraft:
- B-17G-30-BO, 42-31886, 32 BS/301 BG, 'Amazin; Mazie'
- B-17G-20-BO, 42-31452, 20 BS/2 BG, 'Fifty Packing Mama'
- B-17G-25-BO, 42-31844, 772 BS/463 BG, 'The Swoose'
- B-17G-45_BO, 42-97328, 561 BS/388 BG, 'Heaven's Above'
As you can see in the decal images, this set comes complete with a full set of national markings, distinctive unit markings, and some nice artwork. 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!
You can purchase these decals directly from Lifelike Decals. My sincere thanks to Lifelike Decalsfor this review sample!
