jmel Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Look for these in 1/48 to debut at the IPMS Nationals in early August, along with sheets 48006, 48007, 48008, and Pete Fleischmann's 'The Scale Hornet.' Just a teaser for now until I decide which jets will be on the sheet. Jake Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tobiK Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Weasels...G-toom!? Always nice because they had always some special loadouts! Would you think it is a good idea to provide the Weasel modeller with stencils for some typical weapons used on weasel mission? Both, live and inert versions...like AGM-45 Shrike, AGM-88 HARM, AGM-78, Maverick, the big ECM pod... SP and WA weasels should not be missed!? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

phasephantomphixer Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Teasing me two ways there Jake! Second is you show the 561st Comm. WW with grey letter shadow which is one way the original 48-446 SScale got botched up! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jmel Posted May 14, 2014 Author Share Posted May 14, 2014 Erik, we've discussed George weasels a few times in the past. I've got you covered! The 35th & 37th will be represented well, from the early 80s up through the day George closed. I even have a 39th TFS jet going on this sheet. Jake Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jake So the grey shadows of the "WW" on your test sample above is not to be carried to final print I hope :unsure: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
r0t0rdr1ver Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 (edited) Oh how I have longed to do an Edwards Test jet in 1/32... ......maybe a bouns to the 1/48 sheet? Edited May 14, 2014 by r0t0rdr1ver Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mungo1974 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Now if we can have some WW/GA F-4E's Or if your really keen Holloman Iron Knights... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oh how I have longed to do an Edwards Test jet in 1/32... Are we still talking F-4Gs? Edwards never had any F-4Gs assigned--just Cs, Ds, RFs, and Es. Now if we can have some WW/GA F-4E's This is an F-4G sheet, Gary. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mungo1974 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 This is an F-4G sheet, Gary. Lol Jake, I wasn't saying put them on this sheet, just with the George Weasel i thought it would be nice to see some WW/GA F-4E's in the future if you could track down any decent ref's Hunter/Killer teams are cool.....especially Spangdahlem one's!

fulcrum1 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Thank you! Hopefully this will end my two year quest for overpriced AirDoc and Fox One sheets. Anything with sharkmouths is good in my book! I also like the "WW" in white, black with white borders, and that slick euro lizard looking scheme with the dark sharkmouth is slick too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skyhawk174 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 This is great news Jake. I have a couple of Wild Weasel F-4G sheets already but I was not crazy about the accuracy and quality. Knowing Speed Hunter Graphics quality and reputation I am confident in buying sight unseen. I have a F-105G planned too so it will make a nice comparison with the different airframes and colour schemes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ThePhantomTwo Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Lol Jake, I wasn't saying put them on this sheet, just with the George Weasel i thought it would be nice to see some WW/GA F-4E's in the future if you could track down any decent ref's Hunter/Killer teams are cool.....especially Spangdahlem one's! ATB, Gary I hear you on the George/Holloman E's,I gathered enough reference to do any 1993 20th TFS F-4E,crew names and crew chiefs(still have the list),overall pics of the jets could be found thru various sources(which I put on disk)and sent it off to a decal maker that was supposedly hyped on kicking them out,and here we are years later,still no decals.......Jake is plugged into better Phantom sources than I am nowadays(some awesome experts when it comes to Phantoms) and look forward to his Phuture Phantom sheets I'm going to cobble what I can off of the SuperScale and Aeromaster sheets and go from there,I have gave up on getting them any other way.I plan on trying at least to do my E model after we gave it to the 20th somewhere down the road.

philippe.chauvin Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Hi It's a good news for me ... and for my small Air Base !!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jmel Posted July 18, 2014 Author Share Posted July 18, 2014 I didn't have an F-4G in my stash to size the decals for before sending the July batch off to the printers, so this sheet has slipped just a bit. I'll be ready this Fall sometime. Dave, would you please send me that list? It may help me fill in some holes. I have a lot of pics. Jake Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ThePhantomTwo Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 I'll scan the Smoke Trails article that the list is in for you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

arekch Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Hi, Whay about this sheet? I' m eagerly waiting to order it with F-15E but there are no thing on the horizon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jmel Posted August 31, 2014 Author Share Posted August 31, 2014 It's coming. It got postponed because I didn't have a 1/48 kit to size the decals in time for the August releases. It will be done with the next 1/48 round later this year. Jake Quote Link to post Share on other sites
r0t0rdr1ver Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 (edited) Are we still talking F-4Gs? Edwards never had any F-4Gs assigned--just Cs, Ds, RFs, and Es. Whoops, sorry Jake. I think you might have had sheet 48005 Test Vipers in your sig at the time that I posted, so I assumed it was the sheet the thread was about. Sorry! That being said, it'd be cool to have some Edwards F-16 test jets in 1/32 though.... Edited September 15, 2014 by r0t0rdr1ver Quote Link to post Share on other sites
