New Sheets Available!!! 48-058, 48-059, 48-060 and 48-016 Redux!!!
Phew....it's been a long road since NATS! We've had a fairly unprecedented series of delays since the summer....a stack up at Cartograf, and Shawn moving across country backed us up to first of the year, but I wanted to give you folks some breathing room from Christmas before we swamped you with new stuff. We're pretty confident y'all will think they have been worth the wait. To that end, let's just get into it!

48-058 - This is the second in the series of Air National Guard F-16 Wing flagships. The first one sold out almost immediately....and to think we weren't sure ANG subjects would sell, so a second one was surely in the pipeline, and it has some spectacular subjects. This sheet contains our first three A models, the 174th TFW from Operation Desert Storm and their block 10s, and the 107th FIG from Niagara Falls and the 119th from Fargo and their ADFs. Indiana's special P-47 inspired scheme with a giant orange tail and full D-Day stripes is the centerpiece, but also includes a special scheme from Terre Haute. Two versions of Iowa are included, the older snake head markings and the new "Herky the Hawk". Toledo, Arizona, New Jersey, Colorado and Minnesota's new bulldog scheme round out this release. Combat deployed jets, special schemes, and a vast mix of blocks has something for almost everybody. Get them while hey are hot, these will go as quickly as the first set!

48-059  -  This is a long awaited release covering the F/A-18Es of VFA-31. "Felix Rules" indeed! This squadron has been a favorite among aviation enthusiasts for many years, and their markings are among the best looking in the navy. The sheets includes 2 versions of the CAG jet, one from Christmas 2008 and the 2009 CAG, plus the 2009 COs jet, and 5 more lines jets from 2007 - 2009. As is our penchant, we love combat deployed jets here, and AW-8 was on a combat cruise, so their jets are adorned with missions marks. Sized for Hasegawa.

48-060  -  This is our first foray into 80s USAFE F-16s, and we waded right in! This release covers the Block 30 F-16Cs from the 527th Aggressors based at RAF Bentwaters in the late 80s. These are unusual in that they carry the aggressor bort numbers and markings over standard 3-tone viper paint, which really makes for a great looking "boring gray jet". The sheet includes markings for the COs jet from 2 periods, and 5 more line jets! This sheet was the winner in our on-line poll on our forum, and that trend will continue. We love customer inputs, and what better input could you have than a say in what gets produced? 2 sets of early style stencils are included, sized for the outstanding Tamiya kit and includes our standard instructions on exactly how to make the version of the F-16 for this sheet.

48-016 REDUX  -  This is a reprint of our long sold out F-16 stencils, though we've updated it for the second go-round. Included this time are markings for both the GE exhaust, including the interior, and the Pratt exhaust, interior and also the -229 carbon fiber petals. In the past, the only way to replicate this was oversized carbon fiber decals for model cars. You'll be amazed how cool these look! Chaff/flare buckets, tire markings, as many paint barn logos as we could find and the standard stencils plus a variety on numbers means you can customize your next viper model any way you please! These are current all-gray stencils, but later this year when we get more early schemes in the pipeline, we'll do one for the early stencils as well.

Many more things to get done this year, including some airframes we've never done before. If you haven't dropped by the forum, be sure to do so....we're always yakkin' about something or other we're up to. As always, you guys are the reason we do what we do, and we surely appreciate it!
