jmel Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 How about some 1/32 Viper decals for your Tamiya F-16? This is a mix of old-school jets from Desert Storm, Op Allied Force, ANG jets from the early 2000s, the sadly disbanded Fireballs, and, of course, the new 5th Gen Have Glass jets on Ohio ANG, Minnesota ANG, and South Carolina ANG Vipers, as well as the 85th TES flagship. These should look great in 1/32. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

otis252 Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Great news Jake! Have they gone to the printers yet? If not, any chance of squeezing in a grey SCANG "tail band" to do a regular painted jet? I know, beggars can't be choosers. HA! Chuck Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If not, any chance of squeezing in a grey SCANG "tail band" to do a regular painted jet? I know, beggars can't be choosers. HA! Chuck I may add another jet or two if I can squeeze them in. I probably won't have two options for the SCANG, though. They've got around 8 or 9 jets painted in the new scheme, and they all share the same tailflash I have shown here.

Marcel111 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Very nice! What timeframe is the Aviano F-16 from? Marcel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Marcel111 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Very nice! What timeframe is the Aviano F-16 from? Ok, I believe that is from the late 90's. Any chance you could do some Spang Odyssey Dawn Vipers? They had some really interesting configurations, there are pics of this one flying with a mixed GBU-38/AGM-88 load, which imo would be really cool to model. There are also pics with mixed GBU-31/AGM-88 configs flown for that campaign. Marcel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jmel Posted November 7, 2015 Author Share Posted November 7, 2015 Marcel, the AV jet is from Allied Force in '99. An SP jet might not be too hard to squeeze in. Let me take a look. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Rivera Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 (edited) Jake, I understand that at the current moment no one has released a 1/32 F-16ADF conversion set. Would it be possible for you to add the PRANG F-16ADF markings to this sheet? How about using the 1/32 Hasegawa F-16A tail which has the same dimensions as the ADF tail? Cheers!

fulcrum1 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 I have a 1/32 Tamiya F-16CJ that was collecting dust waiting for some new stickers, looks like it won't be sitting too much longer. Thanks! Fireballs it is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Niels Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 FS36170 Hard to find in paints, but FS36076 is close... Jake - any chance for the 180FW and 347FW Vipers in 1/48? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ed, Not on this sheet, Ed. 1/32 is hard enough to justify as it is, but without a kit, even more so. I know the Puerto Rico Vipers are near and dear to you, and I'll try to make it happen, but I can't right now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

delayar Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Hurray!!! Thank you! A pity the Tamiya Thunderbirds Boxing isn't available anymore, otherwise I would build the SCANG Bird Markus Quote Link to post Share on other sites
otis252 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 You don't need the T-Birds boxing anymore to do a SCANG Blk52 Viper. GT Resin has a beautiful small mouth intake and P&W exhaust for the Tamiya Kit. Ordering them this week myself, I've waited on those markings as well for a long time.
