    Markings aids

    in Jet Modeling

    Posted

    I have an idea about how to go outside the box with markings for aircraft that just aren't covered by any of the major or minor AM decal makers. What I'm inquiring about or (if you will) looking for is 1/48th scale tail codes in white for letters and numbers. A sheet with all the letters from A-Z and numbers small and large. This is all I need just numbers and letters.

    I have some decal sheets with letters and numbers, white, black, red, gray, etc. I probably have one in white and one in black that can be sold too.

    If you need some info, just let me know.

    Regards.

    The AIRES 1/48 B-58 Hustler Exhaust Issue/Debate

    in Jet Modeling

    Posted · Edited by phantomfan

    Ben,

    I read that the B-58 nozzles have 24 petals and the the F-4 nozzles have 16. That, in part, would account for some of the difference or that is a result of some other factor making them wider.

    joe.

    Ben you are right, but both Aires nozzles have 16 petals, so are both wrong.

    To me, the new one seems the 1/32 version of their J-79 set...

    I'll wait for the future Two Mikes set, so Mike now you know you have to include good engines... :wasntme:

    Regards.

    F-4E Seamless intakes

    in Jet Modeling

    Has anyone worked with the Super Bug Models 1/32 F-4 seamless intakes? Will they work on the Revell 1/32 F-4F with out to much truble or is there a better option out there?

    Thanks!!!!!

    Hello.

    there where a set, from Seamless Suckers, specifically designed for the Revell kit, if you want I shuld have a spare set.

    If I remember correctly, the Tamya intakes are different from the Revell so I don't think others are an easy fit.

    Hope this helps.

    Regards.

    Dear Matt,

    Sure, we will be available in Oct. The one you see is "re-route" from Taiwan back to HK. We will start to take pre-order next week.

    Hi Raymond,

    any news on the pre-order of the ROCAF F-16?

    Thanks a lot.

    Does it contain parts for both versions, single and twin seater?

    I'm sure the nose for the 2 seats version will be the correct one, but what about the A version, Kinetic didn't retooled the single seat nose yet, right???

    All the best.

    F-16 Nosecones

    I think small strips of decal will do the work, try using some "no hi quality decals" that tend to be thicker, no problem about melting them with glue like plasticad and I think the scale effect could be nice after a coat of paint.

    Hope this help.

    Regards.

    Just a good news for IDF fans, the IDF weapon set will be ready by 3 weeks.

    Hi Raymond,

    can we per-order this weapons set yet?

    Another question about the Kinetic F-16's, will the early kits (F-16AM, F-16C/D and F-16 "Barak") retooled and sold with corrected parts?

    I'd like to know that to decide if is better to wait some times before I order those kits.

    Thanks a lot.

    Hi Isaac,

    I bought some from Fantasy Printshop, very nice, here is the direct link to the "stripes menu": Stripes

    There are also other interesting decals.

    Microscale/Superscale have some too, but never tried them.

    Hope this helps.

    Bye.
