KursadA Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 (edited) This is the final draft of the new 1/72 sheet intended for the Meng kit. I need to do a few corrections; then send it to be printed as soon as possible. Now that I am more confident about the sales of my 1/72 sheets; I will get this printed by Cartograf. It will be my first 1/72 sheet printed by them, let's see how it works. As you can see it's not a simple scale-down of my ANG F-102 sheet: I removed the PA ANG option (they seem to have flown Case XX wings only), added North Dakota (Happy Hooligans) and a 509 FIS example from Vietnam, and Turkish AF markings.

Johnopfor Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Put me down for a set! BTW, the 111th Texas ANG bird, is it one flown by Bush, or is it a standard 111th line jet? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted October 28, 2012 Author Share Posted October 28, 2012 (edited) BTW, the 111th Texas ANG bird, is it one flown by Bush, or is it a standard 111th line jet? I think the concensus is that he did not have a specific aircraft assigned. I don't know a single photo where he is near an airplane whose serial can be read; the closest one could get is a photo where a serial number can be read on the boarding ladder. The markings on this sheet are just for a jet from 111 FIS and nothing more. It is as likely to be having been flown by Bush as any other jet of the unit.

Sweet! Will we see a sheet for Case XX wing jets when that kit becomes available? Hopefully with the Pa ANG markings? Great stuff ;0) Fred. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

KursadA Posted December 13, 2012 Author Share Posted December 13, 2012 Judging by the number of orders I received, it looks like this is not going to be my last Cartograf-printed 1/72 decal sheet after all. You 1/72 guys have surprised me - thanks, everyone! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

thegoodsgt Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Order placed! So many of decals are listed as "Sold Out" that you may need to increase your production runs! Congrats on your success! Steven Brown P.S. For those who missed it, be sure to check out my thoughts on the Meng F-102 on my blog, Scale Model Soup. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I will catch up with the orders this week. The decals have been here for a while and look great, though. Edited January 1, 2013 by KursadA Quote Link to post Share on other sites
