Quinta Studio QL72004 Light plywood, shaded 1/72 – Decals Imitating Aircraft Plywood

Quinta Studio QL72004 Light plywood, shaded 1/72 is a high-quality decal set designed for realistic replication of light plywood surfaces on 1/72 scale aircraft models. This product is mainly intended for aircraft models whose fuselages or elements were made from light aviation plywood, characteristic for many aircraft from World War I and II, as well as selected types from the interwar period.

Historical Application

Light, thin aviation plywood was widely used, among others, in military and civilian aircraft from countries such as Germany, Great Britain, the Soviet Union, or France, mainly during World War II and the interwar period. Examples of planes whose surfaces can be recreated with this set include the German Focke-Wulf Fw 189, the Soviet Polikarpov Po-2, the British de Havilland DH.98 Mosquito, or the French Morane-Saulnier MS.406.
