Eli Raphael is busy producing more of his decals
with sexy nose art. This new decal
sheet from Zotz
Decals
includes markings for two different
1/48 or 1/72 B-24's. The recommended kits for these decals is the 1/1/48
Monogram B-24J or the 1/72 Academy B-24J&M variants.
The first aircraft is a baremetal B-24J-15-CO. Serial number 44-40337 with the 5th AF, 90th BG, 319thBS. This aircraft has an Olive Drab anti-glare panel in front of the windshield and the leading edges of the wings are black. |

The nose art on this one is "Queen Mae" (see image at top of this review). this b-24 has quite a few mission markings. On the outside of the tail is a red white and blue artwork of a skull and cross bones. Double check the turret and nose configuration with your kit to make sure everything matches.....or you may need to buy a conversion set. The second aircraft is a baremetal B-24M-15-CO. Serial number 44-42052 with the 7th AF, 494th BG, 866thBS. This aircraft has an Olive Drab anti-glare panel in front of the windshield and the leading edges of the wings are black. The nose art on this one is "Liquidator" (see image at top of this review). On the outside of the tail is some black stripes and the serial number. Double check the turret and nose configuration with your kit to make sure everything matches.....or you may need to buy a conversion set. |

The decals were flawlessly printed and in perfect registration and the clear carrier film is trimmed very close to the crisply printed colored areas. There is one complete set of stencil data included. The instructions are clear and include 3 view drawings. A very nice decal sheet and highly recommended for all the USAF bomber fans with a passion for sexy nose art. |
