FlyAndFight Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 I've got the venerable Italeri kit in 1/48 scale waiting for these decals. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted October 23, 2018 Author Share Posted October 23, 2018 Still working, folks - tons of smaller mission markings on these sheet; which are not that well documented. I am also including markings for the D-21 drone and pretty much anything else seen on a Blackbird. A bit more patience, and I think you will like the results. These will be available in 1/72 and eventually 1/144 as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Piker38 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Thanks for the D-21 markings ! I have a couple of 1:48 builds that will need these decals once painted-up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

habu2 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 On a recent trip I photographed a couple of D21 drones at museums, I will try to upload them before the sheet is released. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
egmccann Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Been waiting for these... I've got one YF-12 stashed, and another on the way (that I actually GOT for under $90...) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted December 14, 2018 Author Share Posted December 14, 2018 After a long period of development, the SR-71 sheets are coming in March, both in 1/72 and 1/48. I will soon start posting profiles and a list of options. As promised, drone markings and a comprehensive selection of almost all schemes and tail art that ever appeared on a SR-71.

KursadA Posted May 5, 2019 Author Share Posted May 5, 2019 CD48100 will have earlier USAF markings for YF-12 and SR-71, as well as the D-21 drone. It will also have early NASA markings for their YF-12. I still need a couple of days to wrap this one up. CD48101 will have later USAF and NASA markings for the SR-71. Both sets will share a common markings/stencilling sheet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chappie Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Fantastic news Kursad. Will surely grab these for future use. Chappie Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whiskey Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 This is sized for the Testors kit correct Kursad? Does anyone happen to know what the chances of them correctly fitting @JeffreyK's upcoming SR-71 from Hypersonic models? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
habu2 Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 If the kit is not yet released I don't see how anyone could be expected to know...... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted May 6, 2019 Author Share Posted May 6, 2019 My time machine is still broken - I think there are still a couple 9mm slugs in the flux capacitor from that little altercation I had with Hitler’s guards in 1936. Buying a few decals tonight will help greatly for fixing it so I can jump a few years and buy a Hypersonic kit to check if the decals fit. Until then, these decals are designed to fit the Testors kit.:-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

KursadA Posted May 13, 2019 Author Share Posted May 13, 2019 (edited) CD48100 will have markings for 18 (eighteen) different jets - there are markings for YF-12, M-21 and a bunch of SR-71's with tail art. Some of the tail art that are included are "Rosemary's Baby-San", "Super Skater", "Charlie's Problem", "We're the Fakawee", "The Bododian Express" and a few more. Markings for YF-12 in NASA service as well. There are also markings for two D-21 drones as well as basic stencilling, so you can use them on the Kiwi Resin 1/48 scale D-21 and mate them to the M-21 you can build using the decals in this set. I chose 501 and 505, both of which were flown on Tagboard flight tests and operational flights. You may be able to use the markings to make 515, which was an operational Senior Bowl launch. The stencilling / common markings is shared between the two Blackbird sets. There are spare digits on the white markings sheet that should allow you to build almost any SR-71 in the early scheme. Available as part of the next batch. This will be scaled down to 1/72 in the August batch of releases. Edited May 13, 2019 by KursadA Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Drifterdon Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Holy Schnikes! Those are amazing sheets. Probably your best yet! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted May 13, 2019 Author Share Posted May 13, 2019 (edited) Thanks! And before anyone asks - I will try my best to include the same D-21 drone markings on a future 1/72 scale B-52 sheet; with correct serials for an operational Senior Bowl mission and appropriate mother ship. So I can vicariously enjoy someone's build where the D-21 from the Monogram kit is combined with the Modelcollect B-52. Edited May 13, 2019 by KursadA Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Peacemaker Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 FS: Both cutting Edge SR-71 Sheets. I was hoping it would include the YF-12c, i cant wait to get my hands on both of these new sheets. Thanks Kursada for the preview. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
