About product

Markings for wartime Skytrains and Dakotas in 1:144

A printed sheet from Mark I on the subject of service in the Second World War. Besides the designation C-47, the name also carries the abbreviation R4D, under which the same aircraft was operated by the US Navy and the Marine Corps. It is printed matter on a carrier film, not a set of parts.

The real subject in the Second World War

The twin-engined transport was the backbone of Allied air transport. It towed gliders, dropped airborne companies over Normandy and over the Netherlands, supplied units in Burma across the mountain ridges and carried the wounded to hospitals in the rear. It was precisely the combination of a roomy fuselage, reliable engines and undemanding operation from field strips that made it one of the decisive machines of the conflict.

The application procedure

The elements settle best onto a smooth glossy coat. Cut them right up to the printing, so that as little translucent film as possible is left, and use a soft brush to move them. With extensive areas, such as the stripes on the wing, work section by section and pierce the film with a needle if a bubble is left under it. Divide the work into several sittings, so that the elements already settled have time to dry properly. Once dry, a matte coat over the whole surface follows.

Who the sheet suits

  • Modelers focused on the air operations of the years 1939 to 1945
  • Builders of dioramas on an airborne subject
  • Collectors of naval and Marine Corps equipment
  • Those who build one type in several versions side by side

FAQ

That is what the same twin-engined transport was called by the US Navy and the Marine Corps.

It is not. You are buying the printed sheet alone; you choose the model according to your own preference.

Yes, as long as they do not hurry. The key is a glossy base, a sharp tool and patient settling onto a damp surface.

Once it has dried completely, a thin coat of matte clear is enough; it evens out the surface and protects against abrasion.
