RiderFan Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 CF-18 Battle of Britain Scheme - First Look! Hello everyone, I'm pleased to announce that the CF-18 Battle of Britain 2015 Air Demonstration scheme decal are now available for Pre-Order via the Canuck Models website. The decal printing is complete and final touches on the placement guide will be done this week. Shipment of the first sets should happen the week of June 1st. This is the 1:48 scale set. Information regarding other scales will come later in June. Special thank you to Mr. Richard Girouard and Mr. Dan McWilliams for their help and a really big thank you to the members of 3 AMS - CFB Bagotville for their generous support of the project. Tail murals are screen printed using fine dot half-tone technique, similar to the process used to print photos in news papers, only with smaller dots. All paint and decal mixes are matched to official paint chips supplied by the paint team at CFB Bagotville. You can't get more accurate than that! A few more photos available on the Canuck Facebook page. enjoy David Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ken Middleton Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Very cool - I saw this jet at the Westover show on 16/17 May. May seem like a dumb question - how do you preorder? When I go to the page it says "coming soon", but I don't see a way to preorder? I saw the post on Facebook as well, and was wondering. thanks Ken Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Youngtiger1 Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 I saw it at Chino this month and it was very cool looking paint scheme. I took photos all of the markings could think off as its the best looking markings i think and i hope you will consider doing her in 1/32. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The button goes active after that. I can't find pictures of this jet on your website. are they not loaded yet? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Still lots to edit from the show. But I did post a thread here on ARC from the show that has some in it http://www.arcforums.com/forums/air/index.php?showtopic=284709 BTW, I pre-ordered 2 sheets ;-) Edited May 28, 2015 by Ken Middleton Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Emvar Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Got my sheet today.... Very Nice!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stevehnz Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Looking out for these in 1/72. Any chance of a link to the order page when they're announced? Thanks, Steve. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ken Middleton Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 got mine today too - looks great! Only suggestion would be to make the mailing envelope a bit more rigid - mine was fine - but DO NOT BEND is sometimes a call to a challenge for the postal workers ;-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
