Here's a review of a new
1/48 sheet from Afterburner Decals.
Current F-16CJ Block 50 markings for 55th FS Commander's jet, plus 2 line jets from Operation Northern Watch Jets included (all F-16CJ Block 50):
There are 2 complete sets of stencils included. The decals are sized for the Hasegawa kit. The decals are in-register, clear and are beautifully printed. Many of the tail markings and badges are 2 piece decals, ensuring good registry.The color instruction sheet has 4-view drawings to assist in decal placement and the paint scheme. Also, modeler notes point out tips on specific decals. |
There is an outstanding additional
2-sided sheet included. It contains extensive text on:
The other side of the sheet has detailed 4-view drawings for stencil placement. A note on the stencil placement guide: It instructs to place the star and bar insignia on the top right wing, but the insignia goes on the top left wing. The bottom view is correct. Special thanks are given to Keith Diamond and Shawn Hull for their contributions. Additional photo references: |
