FCM Decals

by Michael Benolkin

We recently received a number of interesting new releases from FCM Decals of Brazil. These include:


The Pearl Harbor Attack

This special edition set contains complete markings for a variety of US and Japanese aircraft that were present on December 7, 1941. What is even more interesting is that decals are provided in 1/72 and 1/48 scale in the same set. The 36 page monograph that accompanies the decals includes photos, B&W and color profiles of each aircraft as well as profiles to correctly mark the Japanese bombs and torpedoes used in the attack. Text and captions are provided in both English and Portuguese.
