thegoodsgt Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 A reminder on this thread that a 1/72 version of your H-21 Shawnee decals was a possibility. Not to mention this thread where a suggestion was made for downsizing your H-19 decals to 1/72. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Charlie D. Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Any thought of doing a phantom walkways sheet for the new basics line? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mstor Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 (edited) In the Jet Modeling forum there is a thread about NASA F-104s with some photos. I think they are very attractive schemes. Would love to see the decals done in 1/48. Apparently there was only a 1/72 set released that is now out of production. Link below.

USAFsparkchaser Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 MULTIPLE B-52 SHEETS! Especially with all the new pictures In your B-52 thread. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bryan H. Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 How about some generic US Navy bureau numbers & type designations along generic USN fuselage & tail code letters & numbers in black & white for your Basics line. These would make it easier to create custom USN models. :cheers: and happy modeling, Bryan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AD-4N Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 How about some love for the 1/72 Sikorsky HH-3/S-61R? I bet some of us, like me, have the old Revell kit in the stash. Think of all the schemes: USAF ADC Gray USAF SEA scheme USAF Euro 1 USCG Italy Probably missing some schemes. Atlantis Models is re-releasing the Aurora 1/72 HH-3 in 2Q19, but I understand the Revell kit is superior. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whiskey Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Thought about doing any OA/A-37B Dragonfly's Kursad? Pretty much the only thing out there in 1/48 are some really hard to come by SuperScale sheets. Would love to do some 19th TASS, 51st TFW from Osan, Korea and the Howard AFB ones in Panama.

Corey Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 I like the idea of an A-37 sheet too! Lots of US and international options. corey Quote Link to post Share on other sites

aircal62 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 I too am would love a new A-37 sheet. Super Scales however did not sale well but I think it had a lot to do with inaccuracies and timing. One aircraft to illustrate the inaccuracy was one of the test OA-37B's flown by the USAF Test Pilot's school at Edwards AFB. The one's used at the school were used to teach spins. As such those aircraft had a black stripe painted lengthwise on the starboard wing with the insignia and USAF dropped out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tomcat Trebor Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 I would like to see a sheet(s) of early F-15 in the air superiority blue scheme. True it would be harder for the 1/48 scalers as no kit is available therefore some sort of conversions would have to be necessary but the 1/72 scalers (me) kits are available.

KursadA Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 An early F-15A sheet will be awesome - I have been collecting references for a while and you may see a sheet sometime in the coming year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

thegoodsgt Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Yes, prototypes! And in 1/72 scale, of course. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Paul Boyer Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 (edited) The very first issue of the first 1/72 scale F-15 from Hasegawa (not the current, recessed lines kit) had the markings for the No. 1 bird. Painting it is a bit tricky as the division line between the air superiority blue and the fluorescent red-orange on the outer faces of the fins goes through the stylistic F-15 Eagle design. I built that kit years ago and the model went to the USAF Museum. I remember carefully hand brushing air-superiority blue inside the outline numbers. Lotsa fun.

Slartibartfast Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 I've been enamored with the first A models since I saw them in Airpower magazine in the 1970s. That orange is just bitchin! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 (edited) OK, let's do this - I will call this sheet "F-15 Eagle - The Early Years". If the concept catches on, I will perhaps do "Early Years" for other aircraft as well, covering the prototypes, pre-production and early service examples. The F-16 (yeah, yeah - I know it's been done. Be kind to the baby seals) and F-18 come to mind. I already have been working on an A-37 sheet - in fact, I remember having started a thread for it. I am working on it from time to time - I think it should be done by Spring. Edited November 27, 2018 by KursadA Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BN7149 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 I'm going to insert a shameless plug for my post in this same topic from back in August that may have gone unnoticed... I'd like to throw out another one... Something like "ADTAC Eagles" or maybe " Interceptor Eagles" to comprise of F-15's assigned to any of the Fighter Interceptor Squadron units. 5th, 48th, 57th, and 318th come to mind... maybe I'm missing some? They've all been done in the past, but I think most sheets are getting on in age. I'd personally like to see something in 1/48, not sure what (if any) of those are available in 72nd. -Ryan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
achterkirch Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 How about some nasa subjects? Maybe some recent ones? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
