| Here's a review
of a new 1/48 sheet from Afterburner Decals, with a plethora of markings
for extremely colorful F-16C/D
Aggressors from Nellis AFB, Nevada.
The decals are sized for the Hasegawa kits, and 15 jets are included:

|
|
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 elaborate paint schemes. FS numbers are provided, and modeler notes point out tips on specific decals. Weapons notes and stencil/strength plate markings are illustrated. The history is also included on the Aggressor units at Nellis. |

|
The color profiles help with those jets, as well as the additional ones without a profile. Each jet has a very handy table that lists crew names, stencil colors, if it had walkway markings, strength plates and in-flight refueling guide color. With the tail bands, you can make 4 complete jets from this sheet. Additional references provided by Afterburner Decals: |

This sheet retails for $25.00 and is available through http://www.afterburnerdecals.com Special thanks to Afterburner Decals for the review sample. Ken |
