First Look

Lifelike Decals from Japan turns out some colorful and nicely printed subjects. In this set, we have four distinctive Messerschmitt 109s that will definitely compliment any of the quarter scale kits out there on the market.

This decal set provides markings for four aircraft:

  • Me 109G-6, 7/JG 52, White 1, Vezprem/Hungary, Mar 1945, as flown by Hauptmann Erich Hartmann
  • Me 109E-1, 2/JG 77, Black 13, Marquise AB/France, 1940
  • Me 109F-2, 4/JG 54, White 9, Staraja AB/Russia, Oct 1941, as flown by Oberstleutnant Hans Philipp
  • Me 109G-6/R2, 1/JG 300, White 15, Bad Worishofen/Germany, Jul 1944, as flown by Otto Leisner

As you can see in the decal image, this set comes complete with a full set of national markings, distinctive unit markings, and a wealth of maintenance stencils. If you're looking for a colorful alternative that isn't from the mainstream Superscale/Eagle Strike/Aeromaster line-up, here is a nice way to be different!

You can purchase these decals directly from Lifelike Decals. My sincere thanks to Lifelike Decals for this review sample!
