Here is a very pleasant surprise. This is F-15E 88-1703 of the
334 FS/4 FW based at Seymour-Johnson AFB. This aircraft bears
the nose art "One More For The Gipper" with the face of Ronald
Reagan and silhouettes of the Wright brothers' aircraft commemorating
100 years of flight. What is more surprising is that TwoBobs is
employing a different technique to render the face of Ronald Reagan
with more color fidelity.
The final surprise is that the markings are supplied in both 1/48 and 1/32 scale
in the same set. Even a complete set of maintenance stencils and national markings
are provided in both scales.
The printing is perfectly in register. The instructions are printed
double-sided in color, providing excellent color scheme as well
as decal placement information.
