habu2 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 With so many options on these sheets is there any chance of releasing the common data sheet separately as part of your Basics line? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I thought about this, but the stencilling specific to early and late airframes would not fit on a single, common data sheet. You may have noticed that the common sheet does not include all the stencils, just the big wing walkways, national insignia and some other common details. I also don't think too many folks will end up building multiple 1/48 Blacbird kits. I will definitely have a separate stencilling sheet for the 1/72 sets, though. The Revell 1/72 scale SR-71 is inexpensive and easily available, and it makes sense for a Basics stencilling sheet for the common markings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skyhawk174 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 This looks like a great sheet Kursad. I only have one kit and even though I have read that it needs a lot of work to correct I don't care. I think your decals will look great on it. Thinking of the NASA one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted June 14, 2019 Author Share Posted June 14, 2019 The wait is almost over - I will enable preorders on Saturday. There seems to be a lot of interest in new SR-71 / YF-12 decals and these two sheets will bring a lot of options and high quality of printing at a reasonable price.

Chappie Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Placed an order for the Part 1 sheet because I've got two Kiwi A-12 conversions. Gonna build the prototype and the M-21. BTW Kursad- did you see my email with early F-16 photos? I like this "Early" series and would love to help with an F-16 sheet. Chappie Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Peacemaker Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I can see those SR-71 Sheets selling out fast. All I wanted was the Nasa SR-71C, but couldn't resist hoarding both sheets, and the A-12's what a surprise! Now to offload my cutting edge sheets. Thank you @KursadA for tickling my Nasa itch.

KursadA Posted June 18, 2019 Author Share Posted June 18, 2019 I am amazed at the response to these sheets - thank you all! I sincerely hope that you will like the decals when you receive them. One quarter (25%) of the entire print run has been preordered in less than 16 hours that passed since I sent the e-mail to the list. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Space Tiger Hobbes Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Just asking. You link some of your stencil instructions on your website. Given my eyesight these days, it would be handy for placement of some of the smaller SR-71 stencils. I usually try to find the electronic file for decal manufacturers' maintenance stencil sheets. No biggie. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Did my part too and pre-ordered two sets of these as soon as this sheet was enabled but I'm still waiting on 48100 to get here. I got 48101 over the weened but not this sheet. I sure hope the USPS didn't loose mine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I did not have time to ship any reseller orders before I had to fly to London for vacation - I am now back and will ship all reseller orders within the next 7-10 days. I would expect them to have this sheet in stock in early September. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
