KursadA Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I have a new series of F-16 sheets in mind. There has not been a comprehensive, international F-16 sheet for a while. I basically would like to continue where Zotz' excellent "Vivacious Vipers" series left off. The overall concept will be very similar, but I want to put the emphasis on later blocks (Block 50+ and above) and new users; as opposed to the legacy schemes that have been done over and over again. Singapore, Morocco, Poland etc. would be good candidates. If you have any suggestions, I would be very interested in hearing them. I have already drawn basic artwork for some of these, but I am open to references, subject suggestions etc. This could be a multi-sheet series if successful! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
signals Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I'm guessing that the Pakistani AF stuff will be done separately? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mhoupt Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Poland has been done extensively ( though they are a nice camo pattern). How about Egypt, Jordan, Oman, Iraq, Portugal and Thailand. Mark Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rustywelder Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 (edited) I love the Morroccan viper above, I would also love to see the Omani birds and some Egyptians and RSAF aswell. Edited June 7, 2012 by rustywelder Quote Link to post Share on other sites
F16tot Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I will like to see f16 from also RBAF(bahrain new system),Omani,Singapore,PAF,TuAF,Morroccan viper and in both versions F16C/D and in scale 1/72 will be super super nice and i hope they will also be in this scale..

rustywelder Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 (edited) I belive they are A models but would you consider Venuzuelan birds? Just plain old line birds, I know Aztec did some with the special tails but they don't really appeal to me that much. But I do love any viper wearing something other than the standard grey/grey scheme. Edited June 7, 2012 by rustywelder Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted June 7, 2012 Author Share Posted June 7, 2012 (edited) I'm guessing that the Pakistani AF stuff will be done separately? No change in my plans for PAF F-16s: there still will be a separate PAF F-16 sheet in Global Air Power Series. I will most likely reuse the F-16C/D Block 52+ markings from that PAF sheet in my Viper series, though. I really like the Venezuelan and Indonesian schemes; but I think I will do the recent models first. Singapore,Turkey,Pakistan,Morocco will definitely be there. I now see that Poland and Israel have been covered fairly well by others. I will also do some research and check if there are any recent, interesting unit markings on Greek Vipers as well. For the next sheet, early versions are definitely a possibility. Edited June 7, 2012 by KursadA Quote Link to post Share on other sites
twong Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 We definitely need some Thailand F-16 decals. I vote for the Prince's personal aircraft. I don't have a lot of info on this aircraft but it is one of the better camo schemes I have seen. I think the aircraft was lost due to a hard landing. Hoping someone out there has more info on this scheme so we can get some decals for it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jochemp Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Hoi there, Bahrein new scheme with the falcon, Omani blk 50C' and D's, Egypt AF Blk 40 or 15, Jordan & Chile MLU's, and Morocco Viper, cool scheme. I'm working now on my 14th Viper for my own GB, since most AF have at least one or two versions, Would love to have more options. Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
newsh1 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Hi there KursadA! I would love to see the Moroccan, Omani, late model Pakistani and Egyptian jets along with updated Bahraini(RBAF) markings. Any chance for an upscale to 1/32nd? :D :D :D Regards, Anthony Quote Link to post Share on other sites
signals Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 +1 for 1/32 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gripen39 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I'm in agreement with many of the others. 1/72 F-16s for Bahrain(RBAF-updated)Oman,Indonesia blk32s, Morocco,Iraq, and Arabic countries in general would be great additions to needed decal markings Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Plastictiger Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 You are on the right track. No one has kept up with the FMS Vipers, especially in the Middle East. Everyone has a good list started. The Morrocan jets are way cool. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jochemp Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Or even this... Tomcat RIO Viper Vendetta did one scheme like this freehand, post #19 on his Viper GB might want to check his work too.

achterkirch Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 How about some from Taiwan. I like the ones with the sun on the tail the full colored ones are the best though! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dingo Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Hi Kursad You might remember we've talked about Egyptian Vipers. https://www.google.co.il/search?hl=iw&q=egyptian%20f-16&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.,cf.osb&biw=1666&bih=857&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=dg8QUO2JCoXS0QWfvIDYBQ If you need reference - just ask.

Gripen39 Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Any word or time frame in regard to the 1/72 scale Pakistani F-16C decal sheet? What about the 1/72 late block international(oman,singapore,egypt,etc) F-16 sheet? I am looking forward to both! Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What about the 1/72 late block international(oman,singapore,egypt,etc) F-16 sheet? I am looking forward to both! Thanks Pakistani F-16s will be the subject of Global Air Power Series #3; which I will announce soon..The late block F-16 project is still going on, I will share more about it as soon as I am done with all the higher priority stuff(T-45,F-15,A-10C, etc.) in the pipeline. And it will be in 1/72, too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gripen39 Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Thanks Kursad, as I said I am looking forward to both sheets. Best Regards Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ruud Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Your version of the VV series would be great! The only thing i would note is that a lot of the newer jets have non-standard stenciling. Even with the VV sheets this was something i wished was included more. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted September 26, 2012 Author Share Posted September 26, 2012 Agreed, the Moroccan jets that I am drawing right now have a bunch of nonstandard stencils (such as old school "upward ejection seat" warning on the ejection seat warning triangles, as opposed to simply "ejection seat" used by everybody else), I will duplicate these faithfully as well as I can.

KursadA Posted October 1, 2012 Author Share Posted October 1, 2012 Has anyone released decals for the Polish F-16C that was decorated for Tiger Meet 2011? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
