Here is the first 1/48 B-26 sheet and covers two aircraft. The only kits done in 1/48 are the rather poor AMT kit that may have been reboxed by Italeri, and the much better Monogram kit, that has been reissued quite frequently so should be easy to find.

First up is 'My Darling/Agitator' of the 444 BS/320 BG. This bare metal B-26C-45 has had the upper surfaces and fin lightly over-sprayed with Medium Green and the aircraft itself sports a neat shark mouth and red painted cowl fronts and prop hubs.

The other is an OD over Neutral Grey B-26C-45; "Mary Ann" from the 494 BS/344 BG. Typical of most B-26s of the time, it is devoid of any addition color other than the nose art.

The sheet includes doubles of the nose art in case it is needed and insignia for one aircraft.
