TwoBobs has turned out another interesting set of markings, this
time for a really colorful F-16C Block 30 from the Colorado ANG.
Check out the profile to see what I mean!
The aircraft was painted an overall silver (not a polished metal
look) and received the bright red FS 31136 accents around the airframe.
While decals are provided for many of the red sections, you'll
still have to paint the dorsal spine, belly stripe, and vertical
stab. More experienced painters will just use the red decals for
mask templates and paint all of the red sections to achieve a consistent
look.
This decal set is presented on two decal sheets. Since the aircraft
is a Block 30, you can use most of the current F-16C kits from
Hasegawa, Academy, or whatever and just add a widemouth inlet and
GE nozzle if one is not provided in your choice of kits. These
conversions are available from Cutting Edge (Meteor Productions).

This set is highly recommended!
