KursadA Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 CD48033 is coming in May - this is the first A-6A/E Intruder sheet that I will be doing. It will be followed by a second sheet later in the summer. All will be eventually done in 1/72, and a few select options will be done in 1/32 as well. The 7 options on this sheet are: - VA-165, USS Ranger 1967 - VA-35, USS Enterprise 1966 - VA-196, USS Constellation 1967 - VMA-AW-242, Da Nang 1966 - VA-42, 1975 - VA-65, USS Independence 1971 - VA-128, 1981 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

KursadA Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) Looks like the color profile in Osprey's book was incorrect, and the VA-35 tail band should be orange. Oh well - this is exactly why I post the profiles; and I am glad it was caught. I stand corrected, and the design will be fixed before it goes to print. I will update the profiles and the artwork tonight. Edited April 24, 2013 by KursadA Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 (edited) Look what I received today: I will start shipping this sheet next week (May 23) and it is now available for preorder. Only 300 were printed, so I recommend preordering now if you want these. Designed for the Kinetic A-6A/E kit.

KursadA Posted May 31, 2013 Author Share Posted May 31, 2013 There is a review at MM today - the URL seems to be broken but I will email Scott about it. Here is the correct link: http://modelingmadness.com/scott/decals/caracal/48/cd48033.htm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nerdling Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 That looks like a fantastic decal sheet. I will be ordering one in a few weeks when I get back to work. Did you happen to find any photos of this bird when you were doing research for the Va-128? I took this photo a few years back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Niels Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 What's the story behind the wreck? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nerdling Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 What's the story behind the wreck? They were doing a night training mission from Whidbey Island and down to southeast Oregon. They were flying at to low of an elevation and impacted the top of a ridge. The plane bounced back up into the air and then crashed back down and skidded for about a 1000 feet. If they had been 10 feet higher they would have made it ok. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jwest21 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Received mine today...beautiful! The only problem I see is I need at least one more A-6A kit, as I can't decide which one I want to do! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted April 9, 2014 Author Share Posted April 9, 2014 This sheet is about to be sold out. I have only 8 remaining. I will not reprint this sheet, as I have a second Intruder sheet on the way for an early summer release. Caracal Models CD48033 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ziggyfoos Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 (edited) I will not reprint this sheet, as I have a second Intruder sheet on the way for an early summer release. Which schemes? Will it still be the A-6A model or for the newer E kit? Edited April 9, 2014 by Steve Belanger Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 This sheet is sold out - thanks! Which schemes? Will it still be the A-6A model or for the newer E kit? Hi Steve - the second A-6 sheet will be mostly for the -E model. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
