--------------------

By very popular demand.... Twobobs has released this sheet in 72nd scale.  There you go Paul Boyer!  Now quit E-mailing Twobobs about releasing this decal sheet in 1/72.  :-)   

Seriously though....it's always a very welcome treat when another of the Twobobs great sheets gets released in 1/72 scale.  

The two jets covered here include the tiger striped jet and the standard paint scheme F-16 from the CO ANG who hosted this event back in 2001.

As you can see from the scans of the decal sheets on my advance copy.....the stripes are all there in decal form.  There is no doubt this Tiger Scheme F-16 will take a while to apply the decals....but the end results of your efforts will be one of the most striking F-16's you'll ever see.  I get a kick out of Tiger Scheme jets, so this sheet is a favourite of mine. 

The first plane is an F-16C with serial number 87-241.  This plane is to me what a true Tiger paint scheme is all about.  For me the "all over" Tiger Stripes look the most visually striking and appealing.  The Two Bobs supply all the Tiger Stripes as decals so it's a pretty simple paint scheme to do....provided you are patient and take your time to apply the decals carefully.  This plane is from the "Mile High Militia" and this script in on the bottom of the tail.  This plane is based on Colorado.    

 

Also included is a decal for the jet intake Plug Markings which is VERY COOL indeed (great attention to detail by the Two Bobs!!).  Also included are full stencil data for both jets.

What can I say except....well done Twobobs....keep those 1/72 sheet coming!!

This sheet is available through http://www.twobobs.net/ and select US Hobby Shops.  Overseas customers can purchase these from Twobobs site or through Twobobs network of overseas distributors.  Remember, shipping is always FREE to US Customers at Twobobs!!
