AML 1:72 decals for JG 5 over the far north

A decal sheet in 1:72 scale from the Czech manufacturer AML devoted to the fighter wing JG 5, which operated over northern Scandinavia and the adjacent Arctic region. These are markings you will not find in ordinary kits, and at the same time a subject with a steady following among modelers.

The real subject

Jagdgeschwader 5 operated in the northernmost part of the European theater, in the conditions of the polar day and the polar night, over the sea and over country where a forced landing meant a fight for bare survival. Hence the characteristic look of its machines: quickly applied winter finishes, prominent tactical numbers and unit emblems. The crews flew Messerschmitt Bf 109s and Bf 110s, and the exact mix of types changed during the war.

Building and painting tips

Never do the winter finish as a solid white surface. Apply it thinned over the base camouflage and let the camouflage show through in places, because that is how it looked in reality. Stick the decals onto a gloss base with a decal softener and only then work on wear and chipping. Finally even the surface out with a matte clear coat and make the fine streaks run backward, following the airflow.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of German fighters in 1:72 scale
  • Anyone interested in the fighting over northern Scandinavia
  • Modelers who want winter finishes and unusual schemes
  • Those who build themed unit collections

This is a decal sheet and does not contain the model itself. Paints, glue and the kit are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

The unit flew Messerschmitts. The particular types and the number of schemes are in the list enclosed in the package.

Yes, that is exactly where it comes into its own. Apply the white thinned and let the camouflage underneath show through.

On engraved lines and rounded surfaces it is worth it, as the decal then settles better.
