Why oh why can't I remember a search sequence?

I am looking for decal sheet that has a B-17, B-24, B-29 and perhaps one two others. Seemed to be inexpensive and was in 1/48 scale. Now I can't find it. One thing about getting older...you make new friends every time you look in the mirror.

What was the common thing about those aircraft on a single sheet? I can't imagine such for all those types... :hmm:

I'm not having any luck googling for you, either.

I tried "B-17 B-24 B-29" "Bomber" and the individual bomber types. I thought that sounded like a DP Casper sheet, but that didn't work.

Maybe one of the Kits-World decal sheets?

It was a sheet of complete IPs for these bombers. Don't have a clue why those were chosen, but I wish I'd gotten it then.

Have you tried the turn around/ sit down method? Actually that stops working after 55.

Yep. I even went back out of the room and came back in. The more I ponder this, I may have stumbled on it in the first place.

It was done by Monogram/Pro Modeler. B-17, B-24 and B-29 IPs. I have the sheet in my stash. Pro Modeler did a whole series of IP sheets. And here I was thinking it was some sort of markings/nose art sheet. I see them on ebay fairly regularly.

Ohhh, IP sheets. I was looking for markings too.

I agree with Stik,,,,,,,I have a Pro Modeler 1/72 sheet that does Corsairs, Hellcats, Wildcats, etc,,,,,,it is handy to have those IP decals around for dressing up a cockpit really fast.
