You've seen it before. Someone builds a stunning aircraft model,
but then slaps some missiles on it as almost an afterthought with
no corresponding attention to detail. The result detracts from
the overall model! The fault isn't neccessarily theirs, most kit
manufacturers pay little or no attention to the weapons. If I've
read it once, I've seen it a million times on the online chat rooms "What
color is such and such missile?" There is precious little information
out there for the average modeler to work with.
TwoBobs to the rescue! In this decal set, they've provided detailed
live-round stencil markings for two AIM-120B and two AIM-120C.
The markings are identical except for the data blocks. In addition,
four sets of stencils are provided for the AGM-88C HARM which is
timely for the Tamiya 1/32 F-16C Block 50 and the Academy F-16C
Block 50/52 Vipers.
The printing is perfectly in register. The instructions are printed
double-sided in color, providing excellent color scheme as well
as decal placement information.
There are very few decal sheets that I'd suggest stocking up on,
but if you're modeling more than one 1/32 modern fighter in your
future, you're going to want to get several of these sheets! Highly
recommended!
