The second new sheet for the B-26 has two very interesting aircraft on it, both with some well done nose art! For kits you'll have to dig into the pile of oldies. Most will pick the Airfix kit over any other. Despite its age, it is still the best done later B-26 available.

First up is a B-26B-50 names 'Hard to Get'. This 497 BS/344 BG aircraft has large artwork on both sides of the nose. The aircraft itself is bare metal with the upper surfaces painted in Olive Drab.

The other is a B-26C-40 from the 441 BS/320 BG. 'Belle Ringer' is a veteran in OD over Neutral Grey with red cowl fronts and prop hubs. It carries a rather large set of mission markings that extend on to the nose gear door!

An excellent sheet and one that should inspire many to start digging through the stash to find a suitable kit!

Like all Pyn-up decals, the nose artwork is superbly done on special paper
