1:72 Decals Bristol Beaufighter IF&VIF Part III.

Decals Bristol Beaufighter IF and VIF, Part III. 1:72

A set of wet decals in 1:72 scale from the Czech manufacturer AML for models of the twin-engine Bristol Beaufighter fighter in the IF and VIF versions. These are aftermarket markings for finishing a plastic model, not a kit. The set is the third part of the line devoted to this type and widens the choice with further color schemes.

The real subject

The Bristol Beaufighter was a British twin-engine multi-purpose aircraft that proved itself above all as a night fighter and an attack aircraft. The IF and VIF versions served as the fighter form with powerful cannon and machine gun armament. Thanks to airborne radar it could operate in the dark against night raids as well.

Use and tips

Apply the decals over gloss varnish so that silvering does not occur. In 1:72 scale the subjects are small, so work with tweezers and plenty of water. A decal softening solution will help them adhere across panel lines. Once dry, take a final coat of varnish over them.

Who the set is for

• Modelers building the Bristol Beaufighter in 1:72 scale
• Anyone interested in the British night fighter force
• Collectors of twin-engine fighters of the Second World War

This is a set of decals only. The model, paints and varnish are not included in the package.
