    Difference between WWII and modern Neutral Gray

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Hello all. I'm going to be starting to build a 1/32 Tamiya F-16CJ soon, and going to be using Mr Paint on it. For the Neutral Gray, they only offer a "USAF WWII" Gray, with no FS number evident. Is there a difference between the Neutral gray used on say, a B-17 compared to what would be used on an F-16? 

     

    Thanks for the help

    To use a line from Charlie Daniels...

     

    ...I'm in a bind, 'cause I'm way behind, and I'm willing to make a deal.

     

    Here's the deal guys. There's somewhere I really want to go this Saturday (the Sentry Eagle open house at Klamath Falls, Oregon) and I need gas money to get there. I'm willing to negotiate on price on the remaining models to get the money I need to go, so please, if there is something you guys are wanting, reach out to me and let me know what you are willing to pay. Let's make a deal!

    Hello. I have the following for sale. All are open box, bags sealed. I will ship via USPS to anywhere they ship at cost. PayPal is appreciated, but I can work out other arrangements if needed. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I'll check this page often, but a PM is still probably the best way to get a hold of me, as I check my E-mail a with a lot more frequency. If there is any A/M included with the kit, it'll be mentioned in the description. The only trade I'm looking for at this time is a 1/32 Academy F/A-18D. Prices are semi-negotiable.

    F-15 Eagle experts - which is correct, AIM-9X inboard or outboard with AIM-120C?

    On the fighters, the AIM-9 usually goes on the outside missile rail to allow for maximum view of the uncaged sensor. On the F-15E, the AIM-120 *tends* to go on the outside, as there is less space on the inside, and there has been times that the AIM-120's fins have pierced the CFT's during loading. Still, optimal position is Sidewinder to the outside though, as it allows for the sensor to have the most unobstructed view of the target.

    Models for sale...Help me fund my kid's birthdays

    Good morning all. I've got a few models for sale. I need to sell these rather quickly in order to get some money for my kid's birthdays. As such, I am open to offers. All kits are open box, sealed bags (some boxes came that way) and some come with aftermarket accessories, so be sure to read the descriptions. Shipping will be through USPS. I've got them wrapped up and ready to go, so shoot me a PM with your address and I'll get you a quote. PayPal or Venmo works best for payments. 

     

    I've not been on ARC in over a year, but I am far from new, and have a good reputation on here, so don't hesitate to buy. If something goes wrong, I'll do my best to make it right. That being said, please take a look and see if you can help a fellow ARCer out in his time of need. 

     

    Thanks

    Three tanks on a Super Hornet...common?

    It depends on the time period you are doing, for years the most common configuration was what was called "double ugly ", a tank on centerline and a tank on the right inboard station (sta 8). By not having a tank on the left side this allowed the ATFLIR a better field of view. 

     

    Also, the tank configuration depends on where the squadron is, at home they may fly just one tank, on the boat but not in the AOR they may fly three, in the AOR - double ugly.

    Would the following be a legal load? 

     

    Double ugly tanks, two GBU-24's on the center wing stations, and two AGM-65's outboard?
