yeehah1 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 19 05 2013 Guys, I have Academy's P38E in 1/48. I want to build it, naturally, but would like some good nose-art or unusual schemes decal wise. Does anyone know if there are any sheets out of the quality of Zotz or Pyn-up Decals? I can't find anything but am hopeful they exist. Thanks in advance Liam Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jennings Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 There weren't a lot of P-38Es to have had really interesting markings. Are you set on building an E vs. an F? Loads more Fs around. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yeehah1 Posted May 19, 2013 Author Share Posted May 19, 2013 19 05 2013 Hi Jennings: Well, the boxing is an E (2144. Is it possible to convert it to an F? Liam Quote Link to post Share on other sites
P-38 guy Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Would be nice to see this P-38E done. Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uscusn Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Kits World have a sheet of a P-38E/F #148073. Only one I have been able to find. I have been looking and so far this is it. I have the Academy P-38E kit also. Not ready to build it yet but been keeping any eye for some decals. My link There is one on Ebay. Chuck Fly Navy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
harvs73 Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 If you want something REALLY different why don't you do a RAAF P-38E PR aircraft? It means different colours from the 'run of the mill' P-38 and looks good to. http://www.aussiemodeller.com.au/pages/Reviews/Conversions/RRR48145_P38conversion.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
P-38 guy Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Aeromaster made a set that had an option for an E model. 48-058 Early Lightnings. It's for a 54th FS P-38E #91. They show up on eBay on a regular basis. Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
