Help with Brewster B-339 Buffalo decals.
Posted by Cdn Colin on Thursday, January 18, 2018 3:48 PM

So I"m building Tamiya's B-339 (Kit# 61094).  I'm building it with the Dutch markings.  While researching, I found a period video that clearly showed national markings above and below the wings, but the kit only comes with markings for above the wings.

Does anyone have leftover decals for this kit they'd be willing to part with?  I'm not sure if the $10 (including shipping) to get a spare sheet is worth it for me.

Plan B is to try to paint them on.

Thanks.

I build 1/48 scale WW2 fighters.

Have fun.

I am pretty sure that is the kit that I received two of at Christmas one year. I have built one already in non-US markings, but the other kit's decal sheet should be intact. I am planning that build as a USN Buffalo, so let me verify that we have the same kit and that I do in fact still have the Dutch decals. I will get back to you in the next day or so.

Ok, I do have the same kit with an intact decal sheet. You are welcome to the decals for the Dutch version that you are building. To verify, the markings you need are the orange and black triangles for the Netherlands East Indies Buffalo indicated on page 9 of the instructions? Please message me with your addresss and I will get them into the mail to you.
