Its really nice and I look forward to mine arriving. I hope it does really well and you will have the appetite for making more. I am really hoping for a sheet of Zapppers next.

Hello,

 

is only direct order from you possible or do you have a distrubitor in Europe?

 

Thank you

[mynameismatt]

For now just direct. Working on a European distributor. I did discount shipping a bit in the meantime.

What about making some decals for VFA-113 Hornets next?

[mynameismatt]

Contemplating and drawing up some early artwork for my next sheet. Working on some E & Fs super hornets from 2023 onward. It may need to be a 48th scale release initially as they sell significantly faster. It's just the reality of the decal market. On the bright side, a good selling 48th sheet will give me funds for to size it up for 32nd. 

 

Some other ideas (no promises!) that interest me:
- Low vis E/A-18G sheet (I've got a decent amount of artwork done on this. I do however doubt how well it would sell in large scale. How many growler kits actually get built up and how many would want it to be low-vis? 1/48 may be a better option here)
- 1/48 S-3 Vikings from OIF/OEF/Sunset. 1/32 if the kit ever sees the light of day.
- 1/32 Tomcat sheet with OIF/OEF jets. 

 

Ultimately, my growler sheet needs to break even before I'll produce anything else. Sales have been quite good, but have understandably slowed down after the initial rush. I'm a little less than halfway from breaking even. Without trying to pander to any of you in our great hobby, if you'd like to see more Dash Two decals, consider picking up the grower sheet!

Thanks for everyone's support! It's been great to give this a go!

 

Below is some early work on VFA-213's CAG. Ignore just about all of it - sizing, placing, etc - I'm just drawing up the artwork for now.
