Silver Fang 777 Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 Here's another quick profile, a retro KC-787 And a shamo scheme Steven L I like the shamo one better of the two. :-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Litvyak Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 Here's a list of the RCAF codes that have been used. I've ** the types of "What if" I've been playing with for an alternate timeline. CF-100 Canuck CF-101 Voodoo CA-102E Arctic Hawk (RCN variant of the A-4E Skyawk)** CA-103 Harrier (RCN Harrier GR.7 mated to the Sea Harrier FA.2 Blue Vixen radar)** CF-104 Starfighter CF-105 Arrow CC-106 Yukon CP-107 Argus CC-108 Caribou CC-109 Cosmopolitan CF-110E Spectre (spey engined RCAF variant of the F-4E Phantom 2)** CF-110K Spectre (RCN variant of the F-4K Phantom 2)** CH-112 Nomad CH-113 Labrador/Voyageur CT-114 Tutor CC-115 Buffalo CF-116 Freedom Fighter CC-117 Falcon CH-118 Iroquois CC-119 Flying Boxcar CT-120 Chipmunk CP-121 Tracker CC-123 Otter CH-124A Sea King CF-126 Polarcat (RCAF variant of F-14A/D Tomcat)** CA-127B Corsair 2** CA-127E Corsair 2** CT-128 Expeditor CC-129 Dakota CC-130E Hercules CC-130H Hercules CC-130J Hercules CC-132 Dash 7 CT-133 Silver Star CT-134 Musketeer CH-135 Twin Huey CH-136 Kiowa CC-137 Boeing 707 CH-138 Twin Otter CH-139 Jet Ranger CP-140 Aurora CP-140A Arcturus CT-142 Dash-8 CC-144 Challenger CH-146 Griffon CH-147 Chinook CH-148 Cyclone CH-149 Cormorant CC-150 Polaris CT-155 Hawk CT-156 Harvard 2 CU-161 Sperwer CU-170 Heron CC-177 Globemaster 3 CF-188 Hornet / Super Hornet 102 was probably skipped not to confuse with the Avro C.102 Jetliner, and 103 so as not to confuse with the proposed CF-103 swept-wing Canuck. The CF-104 was originally designated CF-111. There are a few Real World ones you've missed: CP-122 Neptune CH-125 Piasecki H-21A CH-126 Sikorsky H-34 CH-127 Piasecki H-21B CX-131 Dynavert (remind your friendly neighbourhood USMC Osprey pilot who did it first! ;) ) CC-141 Starlifter (designation was set aside but never used - there's a whiffy build!) CH-143 Kawasaki BK-117 (single unit tested in 1985) CT-145 Super King Air CU-160 IAI Eagle CU-162 Vindicator CU-163 MQ-9 Reaper CU-167 Silver Fox CU-168 Elbit Skylark CH-178 Mi-17V-5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MattC Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 I wonder, have any of you talented chaps turned your attention to the ultra-sexy Mirage F1? IMHO one of the nicest looking jets ever made. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
torchf4 Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Damn it Richard! Stop drawing more Scooters 'what-ifs' and start making some decals so I can build a few before I go bonkers! Now the TA-4K's! 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. Cheers Richard. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AT1Mike Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 E/F-18H (SH with an E-2 screw top!) They are taking over everything else on the deck, so why not? I'm in a retarded mood today! Actually I'd love to see a Super Tomcat 21! (Im sure someone's had to have done this by now.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jatuttle Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Just started on the "ultimate base patrol vehicle" for an Air Force Security Forces Squadron- a "cop" A-10 in overall white with a light bar and black accents. No speeding on base! Jeff Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Diamondback Six Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Well, I'm planning a Tomcat 21-Plus (Attack Super with added F135 engines, expanded weapons stations and maybe Super Flanker-style canards), but a little stymied by lack of reference material. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hornet97 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Could someone please do the VMFA-232 super hornet from ae combat assault horizon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
southwestforests Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 (edited) I have an idea for a Buccaneer as well. I picked up the airfix kit, took a good look at the fuselage lines and it struck me that a white and black scheme would look great. Basically a Killer Whale. Comments? Laughter? Now 5 years later - do it.Think this thread goes to show that a good airplane will look good no matter how it's dressed.

hornet97 Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Doesm any one know where I can get Georgia ang decals for the f-15 in 1/48th scale. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tony Stark Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Doesm any one know where I can get Georgia ang decals for the f-15 in 1/48th scale. Which markings? the origina; full color tail markings? The Lo-vis version or the later Mod-Eagle scheme with GA tail codes? There is/was a boxing of the 1/48 Hasegawa F-15 that included GA ANG decals as well as an old Italeri offering that included it, but the Italeri kit is horrible and the GEORGIA on one of the tails is angled in the wrong direction. I don't know if there were any aftermarket offerings, especially since they switched to B-1Bs in 1996 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hornet97 Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Similar to one of triggers drawings as a low vis eagle as a what if E model but any ANG eagle would be fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kale Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 man over the past 4 days ive gone through all 134 pages and it re inspired my desire to start profiling just so i dont have to make any requests. Far148 thank you for your help in getting started with your tutorial. I cant wait to see if a GB is going to happen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ChippyWho Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 The whif group build begins Febuary 1 2013 - August 1 2013 just a heads up I would like a piece of that! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Trigger Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Nice MUDHEN! what about a venezuelan viper with the colors used in the SU-30MK2? design by Alvaro Cordero Sic regards.- I've got a Hasegawa F-16A with the extended tail that I've been looking for an interesting scheme to finish it in. I think my search is over. Doesm any one know where I can get Georgia ang decals for the f-15 in 1/48th scale. Caracal is getting into the ANG Eagle biz, maybe cast a vote for some GA ANG love?

Trigger Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 MOAR VIPERZ!!! WhIf...Older USAF F-16C Block 30/32s, instead of being sold overseas, are picked up by the USN for their Adversary fleet. I picked VFC-111 so I could throw a colorful tail onto these, I'll do a full-tail boss bird next... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChernayaAkula Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Awesome Vipers! Good to see you posting again, Trigger! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Trigger Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Awesome Vipers! Good to see you posting again, Trigger! Danke! Ok, I kinda like this one, these next two, eh... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gary F Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Nothing wrong with that second one ... might actually be my favorite of both groups. I've got a few Has F-16s in work to be aggressors so may have to try one or two of these schemes. Oh, liked all of your first group, too! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paul W Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Is there a special program that you use for these illustrations? It is sure interesting and I would love to experiment with it some. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm using Photoshop. The methods I use are similar to what FAR148 has in his link. Hey Grant, good to see you're alive and kicking ! ;) Those are some cool Sundowner Vipers to boot ...
