KursadA Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Thanks for the kind words, folks - I actually appreciate the constant influx of new ideas in this thread. The actual nagging and harassment takes place in my email inboxes and not here 🙂 The to-do list looks overwhelming at times, but we will get to see it all - it will just take some time. I just sent a few new designs and reprints for my August batch of releases so I will start shipping new sheets as soon as I come back from the UK. The next couple of weeks will be very busy shipping all of your orders for the SR-71s and other sheets. As always, thanks for your support and interest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In 1/48, there is both the Falcon conversion and the C and H conversion that are available. Not sure how well a whole sheet of that subject would sell though... Well I think a 1/32 F-105D sheet would be best, the NJ ANG "B" option could be sort of like a bonus option... Although, didn't the 4th TFW with the large Indian head on the nose use both "B" and "D" models? -Derek Edited June 28, 2019 by viking73 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have a sheet with earlier (NMF/silver) F-105 markings in mind, and a 1/48 scale F-105B/D sheet is also a possibility. 1/32 is not a given though - it is no secret that 1/32 does not sell fast enough for me and I will be very picky in choosing the whatever few 1/32 sheets I will be releasing in the future.

Don’t forget the Thunderbirds too! i think Kursad is right, any B model markings should be included on a wider D model sheet. corey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Falconxlvi Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 I would definitely be in for some 4th TFW F-105 markings! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stephen Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 How about some Edwards F-4's there are some nice pics in these threads https://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235056912-test-support-nf-4e-66-0319/ https://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235040093-rf-4c-63-7744/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hajo L. Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 I just noticed that the announced "new" SH-3D/G Sea King by Italeri in 1/72 (a reboxing of the Fujimi-kit) comes without the earlier announced Italian Navy decals. So, I'd like to throw in Italian Navy markings for a "blue" Sea King and of course some markings for a "grey" US Navy-aircraft. Italy: US Navy: HAJO Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AD-4N Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Now that we have Early Years Eagles and Early Years Falcons and Hornets on the way, how about Early Years Tomcats? I’d love some 1/72 white/gray/orange prototype F-14A birds. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hi, The early Tomcats (early as in the first 12) are a part of that arena where you'd be without competition. I mean the really early ones with the higher fences on the back. There is a 1/48 Steel Beach conversion set for the Tamiya Tomcat, but decals don't exist as far as I know. The markings are pretty cool with all the red and orange. I've read that in 1/72, the old Matchbox kit has the higher fences. I believe that it was only ever issued with decals for fleet markings. Cheers, Stefan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There is not much in 1/72 for Tomcats, so these would be most welcome for many modelers, I think. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thegoodsgt Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 I love the idea of early F-14 markings, but here’s rub. Which kit should the decals be sized for? Hasegawa, Fujimi, Fine Molds, or Great Wall? (The GWH kit is going to be a D model, but we can assume they'll release an A eventually.) Discuss.... 😃 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Niels Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 No point in making decals for kits not released 😋 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Johnopfor Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 OHH....Please....in 1/72 scale..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew D. the Jolly Rogers guy Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 If you do more ANG Vipers in 1/72, this Vermont bird would be wonderful!! There are no Vermont Viper decals in 1/72 for any of their GE-powered Vipers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lucio Martino Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 KursadA, We need you to shrink your beatiful 1:48 FB-111A sheet in 1:72. To my knowledge, the few related old Micro/Super Scale sheets are very hard to find. In addition, Hasegawa is re-realising this kit, still tge best in this scale. Looking forward to that.

jenshb Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 And on the subject of FB-111s - perhaps some in the SIOP scheme as well? The DarkVark scheme is a bit too drab for my liking... The Microscale sheet is long out of production, and the future Res-Kit exhaust set has re-ignited my desire to build one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Highly likely - will post more comments if i survive the crowds of the British Museum. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
