Happy Holidays, how soon can we expect to preorder the 1/72 NASA & STARFIGHTERS team F-104 sheets. I am planning on at least two or three of each. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Starfighters sheet is printed but the NASA one is not - it increasingly looks like my next batch of decals is not going to be available until late January. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Corey Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 (edited) I know this is an obscure model kit of an obscure subject, but ever consider doing markings for the Hobbycraft CF-100? these guys got me thinking about it: I have this kit, but the kit decals are sorry and there is not much out there for aftermarket.

AD-4N Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 1/48 and 1/72 H-53 family. Everyone uses them: USAF, USN, USMC, JMSDF, IDF, Germany and more. So many schemes: SEA, engine gray, ADC gray, olive drab, USMC Land Scheme, IDF tan, USMC tactical gray . . . And tons of other schemes I forgot just now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm pretty sure AMP will want to do a HH-43, since they have the more obscure HOK-1 as a future release. https://www.hannants.co.uk/product/AMP48013?result-token=FstzO Maybe some day, they'll give us an HH-3...

Stephen Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 McDonnell Douglas QF-4N?

Hey Corey, I suggest you print your own decals. You can do magic. There are tutorials online, if you are interested. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AD-4N Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Kitty Hawk 1:48 Jaguar family needs some love. Lots of users: RAF, France, Ecuador, Oman, India, and Nigeria. Lots of schemes: RAF pink, French desert, gray/green, all gray, Nigerian jungle. Most sheets now are for the RAF and France, single-seaters. Everybody used at least some of the Wagon Queen Family Truckster T.2/T.4/E versions. I've read the kit decals are sometimes off-center and hard to manage (i.e. once they hit the model they are very tough to move). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
achterkirch Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Ever thought about doing a sheet of just black schemed aggressor/advisory jets like the F-5, F-16, F/A-18 and T-38’s? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dutch Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 Not necessarily a new request, just a neat photo of a KC-46 in-flight refueling boom. Notice the boom markings. The KC-135 & KC-10 probably have similar markings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I will include it in the generic markings sheet in 1/72 as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glynn Jacobs Posted December 21, 2019 Author Share Posted December 21, 2019 And the request list continues... How about printing a stencil only sheet for the 72nd B-52H and B-1B so that we can get more than one option out of those EXCELLENT sheets? Also, can somebody scan the stencil placement instruction insert for the B-52H (72-058) sheet for me? I seem to have lost mine in moving stuff. WARDOG Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Revell included a pathetic set in their KC-10 kit. And AMT-ERTL neglected to put any boom markings in their KC-135 kits. Well done sir. I am sending you a small gift.

Whiskey Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 How about a dedicated sheet of Air Force test and evaluation aircraft? I've seen tons of Navy squadrons done in 1/48 (VX-4,9) but I've rarely seen USAF ones. Even then there's still USN markings that have still not been portrayed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SpitfireGuy Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Air Tankers for fire fighting in 1/48? could include options for new ICM Invader, Monogram B-25, Kinetic S-2 Tracker, TBM, Tigercat abd Guardian, PBY abd even B-17 although heavily modified. I know you have covered the Tigercat and Guardian on past sheets but there are some cool schemes out there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dutch Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Kursad, Any chance of announcing the January / February slate of decal releases? K/r, Dutch Quote Link to post Share on other sites
riffraff Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 (edited) To go along with your "early years" theme, some early AV-8B decals would be nice. Edited December 31, 2019 by riffraff Quote Link to post Share on other sites
