aerodrew Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 http://www.hlj.com/product/HSG09808 This has got to be the first time I've ever seen a model with Hawaii ANG markings! Has markings for other guard units too, but the box photo is of a Hawaii jet. Perhaps this one was before my time since I don't seem to recall the Hawaii F-15s having these yellow and red accents on the tail and nose of the aircraft. I'm still trying to figure out what kind of font is used to make the Hawaii logo and the pilots'(and their crew chiefs') names so I can effectively copy those markings and apply the logo in different sizes on my own custom decal sheets.(hoping to make a hawaii F-15 egg plane in the future.)

Hi, U should find your answer here : http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/image/10070168t2/60/2 There are 3 versions : HAWAII ANG + MISSOURI ANG + GEORGIA ANG I don't remember a decal sheet of the HANG anywhere else.

ThePhantomTwo Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Repli-Scale had a sheet with Hawaii and Georgia F-15A's(and a USAF one) on it years ago,in 1/72 and 1/48 IIRC. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
viper50 Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 (edited) I'm not sure if you are being specific about F-15s or Hawaii ANG, but the Hasegawa F-4C/D Phantom II Egypt I edition has markings for 199th TFS 154th CG Hawaii ANG.

phantom Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Hasegawa also released a very nice F-4C with Hawaii markings in 1/72. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Trigger Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 (edited) The 1:48 Italeri F-15A/C included markings for a HI ANG and the same GA ANG jet (74-116) as this Hasegawa release. But Italeri got the GA markings wrong on one side; the type doesn't lean back "with with wind" it leans forward against it. Edited May 28, 2008 by Trigger Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Roberts Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 It's not a jet but Pro-Modeler when they did 'aftermarket' decals for thier kits had HANG P-47N markings also. Don't know if any you'd find would still be useable as alot of my PM kit decals have deteriorated over the last 10 years Matt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chorse6 Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Drew, I have the Repliscale F-15 sheet if you're interested. PM me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PNW_Modeler Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 (edited) Not bad...I like those warrior stripes on the tail. Not as cool as the VC-1 Blue Alii markings...but still cool Edited May 28, 2008 by paul.nortness Quote Link to post Share on other sites
f5guy Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Repli-Scale had a sheet with Hawaii and Georgia F-15A's(and a USAF one) on it years ago,in 1/72 and 1/48 IIRC. This sheet also had some very cool 5th, and 318th FIS markings. Didn't someone (Repliscale maybe) do Missouri ANG markings like those in the newly re-issued 48th Hasegawa kit, in 72nd scale? I'd be interested in the Mo. markings if anyone has some to spare. Thanks, Fred K. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Grey Ghost 531 Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Not bad...I like those warrior stripes on the tail. Not as cool as the VC-1 Blue Alii markings...but still cool That was the old Primo beer trademark. I always liked it too, though, Primo was some pretty foul swill back in the day. I understand it's been revived. I hope they improved it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
g0_command0 Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Doesnt the RoG F-4C/D boxing that was just released have Hawaii markings also? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
parche Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 I'd love to see a history sheet for HI ANG from one of our esteemed decal producers <_< Cheers, Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites
F106A Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 Doesnt the RoG F-4C/D boxing that was just released have Hawaii markings also? Yes it does! http://www.arcforums.com/forums/air/index....howtopic=153058 My question is was there/is there a decal sheet for HANG F-102's? They were the last unit (Active/AFRES/ANG) to fly them. 1977 if I remember correctly. I'll have to dig up my old pics from my laptop. Mark Quote Link to post Share on other sites
j-basset Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 Mark, If I recall correctly, Fox One Decals did the HANG F-102 in one of their now OOP F-102 sheets. Jason C.

David Walker Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 If I recall correctly, Fox One Decals did the HANG F-102 in one of their now OOP F-102 sheets. Yup, that was this sheet: http://www.foxonedecals.com/index.html?tar...〈=en-us And it's listed "in stock" at FlightDecs: http://flightdecs.ca/A_foxone_48.htm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JackMan Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 Kedidecals (by KursadA) also made the HANG F-102 sheet. But it's OOP (unfortunately ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aerodrew Posted May 31, 2008 Author Share Posted May 31, 2008 Hmm that low visibility version doesn't seem to have the transparent background that the Hasegawa A model seems to have. Has anyone who bought the low vis decal set tell me more of its quality? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Nirel Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 Does anyone know what the deal is with the speedbrake on the boxart photo? Looks like it was stolen from an E model. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
