Starfighter Decals 1/72 Boeing F4B-4 Part 4
By Matt Bittner
If you're still looking for markings to finish a Monogram (or Accurate Miniatures or Starfighter Decals re-release) Boeing F4B-4, Starfighter Decals has released their fourth sheet of decals for this kit (the third we reviewed some time ago). This time around there are markings for the following aircraft:
- F4B-4 9246, VF-3B, USS Langley, 1934, with a willow green tail, and a red fuselage band and engine cover (not cowl)
- F4B-4 8820, VF-3B, USS Langley, 1932, with a willow green tail and the engine cover bottom-half red
- F4B-4 9950, VF-6B, USS Saratoga, 1934 with a white tail, cowl and fuselage band
- F4B-4 9252, VF-6B, USS Saratoga, 1934 with a white tail and lemon yellow cowl and fuselage band
Starfighter Decals is now using Canuck Decals as their decal producer so while these decals look great and in register I have yet to use them to see how they adhere and react with the typical decal solvents.
A definite "thank you" to Starfighter Decals for sending these in for review.
