Decal Review Iliad Design 1/48 P-38J Lightning
This is a new decal sheet from Iliad Design.
This sheet from Iliad Design gives you 5 different decal P-38J options.
These decals are not designed to work with any specific kits but the main players seem to be the Academy kits, which were also reboxed by Eduard, and Hasegawa. You will see some other boxings out there but they mostly seem to date back to the Monogram kits of the 60s.
