LOTS of decals today....

1/72 Sky's Decals IAF F-16 tail markings - so much stuff, wouldn't be surprised if oe or the other ended up on a whif.
1/72 Isra Decal F-16I Sufa -  also real world, but so many left-overs.....   :wacko:
1/72 Isra Decal F-15 A/B/C/D Baz - may end up on a Revell Eurofighter, probably in the Eagle scheme of two greys.
1/72 VF Decals for VF-101, VX-9 and VX-30 Tomcats - destined for a Super Hornet or two - Grim Reapers F/A-18F and VX- 9 "Vandy 1" F/A-18F  :wub:.
1/72 VF Decals for VF-101, VX-9 and VX-30 Tomcats (yes, got it twice  :rolleyes:)  - destined to go on an F-8 Crusader (Crusader on steroids - uprated engine, avionics, armament, in TPS scheme)
and
1/48 Sky's Decals IAF F-16 combo with all the tail marks and a stencil sheet - these will end up on a 1/48 Revell Eurofighter, but in the F-16 IAF ground-pounder scheme.
Cheers,
Moritz


Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Today I very gladly received a bag full of goodies from Alan AKA, Dork the kit slayer. I met both him and Ian the gatherer of Hunters at my LMS, which is Transport models in Preston. Two very nice guys to meet and chat to, thanks again Alan for the bits. :thumbsup:
Cheers,
Chris.

My Revell (Dragon) 1:700 Invincible arrived today. Not sure what will happen yet, but I have several possible projects in mind.
Some of my models can be found on my Flickr album >>>HERE<<<

Saw the new Revell 1/144 Tornado GR Mk.1 and the 1/72 Sd.Kfz.251/1 with Wurfrahmen 40 "Stuka zu Fuss" at the LHS today. Couldn't resist, now, could I?  :rolleyes:

Both kits look really nice. The Tornado is the relatively recent kit with some British extras thrown in. You get the Sky Shadow pod, two Hindenburger tanks, two ALARMs, two 1000lbs Brit Paveways and four 1000lbs GP bombs. EDIT: Strangely enough, they missed the characteristic chin pod housing the LRMTS.  :banghead: END OF EDIT Markings are for a No. 27 Sqn bird with large yellow and green triangles on the wings and fin.
Figure those weapons will look quite nice on other 1/144 builds in need of British weaponry. The RoG 144 Hunters only came with SNEB pods, so those 1000 pounders will come in handy for a bit of variety.

Moritz

The DHL guy was busy again today....  :rolleyes:

From Lucky Model:
1/35 Hobby Boss ZTZ-99B current Chinese MBT (digi-camo!) - looks rather nice in the box.
1/48 Skunkmodels Israeli weapons set # 1 - to arm that 1/48 IAF Typhoon.
1/48 IsraDecal Mystere IV - these will end up on an Israeli Sabre, although I'm not sure yet about Sabre or Sabre Dog (cannons, not rockets) and camo (NMF, blue/brown over grey or the IAF camo we all love).

From Hobby Link Japan courtesy of their no-shipping-fees offer:
1/144 MYK Design decals for P-47D Thunderbolts (including Dave Schilling's) - they will end up on a Thunderbolt - but an A-10 Thunderbolt II!  :wacko:
1/144 MYK Design decals for F-22 Raptors on Kadena AB
1/144 MYK Design decals for Mitsubishi F-1s of the 1994 Tac Meet - lotsa Japanese shark-mouths!  :wacko:

 :lol: Yeah! The poor thing is getting a good workout these days. But it won't have to suffer much longer. It'll go into a well-earned retirement at the end of the month.  ;D The replacement is already trembling with fear! :wacko:
