About product

DK Decals B-25C/D Mitchell The Grim Reapers 1942 (1:48)

A set of water-slide (wet) decals in 1:48 scale from the Czech maker DK Decals. It is neither a kit nor a model but an add-on sheet of markings intended for plastic models of the twin-engined B-25C/D Mitchell bomber. The decals offer several variants of finish for machines operating in the southwest Pacific, in the area of New Guinea and Australia in 1942.

The real subject

The North American B-25 Mitchell was an American twin-engined medium bomber, one of the most widespread Allied types of the Second World War. The B-25C and B-25D versions differed from each other mainly in where they were built and were widely used in the Pacific, where they proved themselves in attacks at low and medium altitude. The markings in this set are tied to units operating over New Guinea, where Mitchell crews carried out bombing and ground-attack tasks against Japanese targets.

Use and tips

Apply the decals onto a smooth, glossy and degreased finish, ideally over a layer of clear gloss varnish. Cut the part out, dip it for a few seconds in lukewarm water and, once it has released from the backing paper, slide it onto the model. Fine-tune the position, press the excess water out gently and use a decal softener for perfect adhesion into the detail. Once dry, go over it with a matte or semi-gloss varnish.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers building the B-25 Mitchell who want a less usual finish than the one from the box
  • Anyone interested in the US Army Air Forces in the Pacific and the New Guinea theater
  • Collectors of markings for particular historic machines

This is an add-on sheet of decals. The model, paints and varnish are not included in the package.

FAQ

No, it is a set of wet decals (markings). The plastic model itself, paints and varnish are not included in the package.

For plastic models of the American twin-engined B-25C/D Mitchell bomber in 1:48 scale.

Onto a glossy degreased finish: dip the part in lukewarm water, slide it off the paper onto the model, line it up and once dry go over it with a matte varnish.
