FirstLook

 

Art Scale Kit has released several decal sets for last year's Infinity Models Aichi D3A1 Val.

Tonight we examine Part 3.

 

 

These 1/32 scale decals have been designed to fit the Infinity Models kit.

 

 

Instructions with reference and four-view illustrations are included.

Decal printing quality looks very good. The decals are glossy in finish. Apparently the clear top layer of the decals may be removed after application with lighter fluid, much in the same way as recent Eduard decals.

 

 

The three subjects are:

  • Aichi D3A1 Val, model 11, BI-263, crewed by FPO2/c Takeo Yamazaki, aircraft carrier Soryu.

  • Aichi D3A1 Val, Model 11, 35-201, 35th Kokutai, Celebes (Sulawesi), 1942.

  • Aichi D3A1 Val, Model 11, AI-208, airc

If desired, the decal cover varnish can be removed - wash off Zippo lighter fluid.

These are nice looking decals that will offer an individualised finish for your 1/32 scale Val.

Thanks to Art Scale Kit for the samples
