KursadA Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 (edited) My first 1/72 scale KC-135R has been very successful, and I have fewer than 20 sheets left. There are a few KC-135R units that I would like to cover, and it looks like I have enough KC-135R stencilling sheets to allow a limited release of 250 sheets. So I will be doing a second, limited run KC-135R sheet to cover some of these units and conclude the 1/72 scale modern KC-135R series. CD72066 should be available as part of the big June batch.

Would these include any of the Nebraska ANG aircraft that I sent you pictures of? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

KursadA Posted April 18, 2017 Author Share Posted April 18, 2017 Absolutely, folks - 155 ARW (Nebraska ANG) will be one of the options on the second sheet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Darth2307 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Any chance we will see the Utah birds on this sheet? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted April 20, 2017 Author Share Posted April 20, 2017 There will be a Utah ANG option on the sheet as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Drifterdon Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I'm thinking I need more KC-135R kits! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Djack Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Even though I dislike the Kansas University Jayhawks sports teams, I've always hoped someone would do the Kansas ANG "Jayhawks" 184th refueling KC-135R's. Always my favorites along with the 190th "Kansas Coyotes" refueling wing at Forbes Field, Kansas. Thanks. David Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dutch Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Will you do it in 1/144 scale as well? I have way more kits in that scale. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ljmorrow92 Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Any love for the 507th out of Tinker? Lots of nose art! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dutch Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 (edited) Adding to those already mentioned, I'd like to see: 6th AMW, MacDill AFB, FL; 92nd ARW, Fairchild AFB, WA; 916th ARW, Seymour-Johnson AFB, NC; 452nd AMW, AFRC, March AFB, CA; 117th ARW, Alabama ANG; 141st ARW, Washington ANG; 107th ARW, New York ANG. Edited May 30, 2017 by Dutch Add additional unit and links Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted May 6, 2017 Author Share Posted May 6, 2017 (edited) I design a new KC-135R sheet with Utah markings for the first time, and Utah gets a new tail fin flash. Wow. I will try and incorporate the new flash as well - maybe not on this sheet, but the next one as more details emerge. https://squaredaviationblog.wordpress.com/2017/04/25/utah-air-national-guard-receive-new-fin-flash/ Edited May 6, 2017 by KursadA Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Falcon053 Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Wow, they have been flying with the same blue and white tail bands since...well forever. About time they try something new. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jefropas Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 All these 135 units are using their state university bands and colors...I like it... Jeff Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted June 3, 2017 Author Share Posted June 3, 2017 (edited) Yet another addition to the already crowded August batch of releases - this one will include the same Cartograf-printed KC-135R stencilling sheet as used in CD72030. I still have the 1/144 scale KC-135R sheet in stock - when it sells out, the options from this sheet will be combined with others to make a new 1/144 scale KC-135R sheet. Note that CD72030 is now sold out - I will not be reprinting it again in the next 2-3 years, and this one will be the only 1/72 KC-135R sheet in my product line.

Gator52 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Looks good, I especially like the NE & MS options. Jonah Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Drifterdon Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Definitely on my BUY list. Looks great. Now to decide if I do NE or AK. Would love to see these in 1/144 along with some earlier A's. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

No, sorry. They are all very nice, but including them would have put this sheet over the time and cost that I budgeted for it. Perhaps in a future sheet.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dutch Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I'm in for a sheet. August release, you say? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Falcon053 Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 YES...Utah ANG. There are some really nice choices on this one. Too bad I'll only ever build one 1/72 KC-135, but with the 1/144 you can for sure do some damage! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
