Xtradecal has recently released a new series of 1/32 scale decal sets covering variants of clear-nose Mosquitos.

This new release is designed for the HK Models 1/32 scale Mosquito B.Mk.IV kit.

 

 

The five subjects cover a interesting selection markings. All five subjects are finished in the Day Fighter Scheme of RAF Dark Green and Ocean Grey on the upper surfaces and Medium Sea Grey below.

 

 

Details are as follows:

  • T.Mk.III TV970 FK-V 219 Sqn RAF Wittering 1946;

  • B.k.IV DZ421 XD-G 139 Sqn Sg/Co Peter Shand/P/Off C.D.Handley RAF Marham 1943;

One set of RAF national markings and one set of USAAF national markings are included.

Instructions for the decal sheet are in full colour on a folded A4 sheet. Both side views are provided for all aircraft.

Colour notes are supplied, along with model paint callouts for Xtracolor enamels and Xtracrylix acrylics.

The decals are beautifully printed and feature thin carrier film.

 

 

This is a straightforward decal release that will lend some different options for modellers building HK Models' 1/32 scale Mosquito.

Highly Recommended.
