Thomas Lund Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Simply mindblowing. I have never seen such a cool paint job!! Although I'm almost exclusively a WWII modeler, I was surfing the internet shops for a F/A-18C after seeing this one first time. Luckily I didn't find any.

preditor Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 well done sir that is one fantastic model, i have the d night attack version and was thinking of doing something simular but wasnt sure if the digi camo was ever used, i cant seem to find any reference on the net plus there would be a problem with the decals, what advice would you give. roy.

tomastewart Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Just amazing! I was wondering if someone would have the patience to do such a major masking job....now where is my F/A-18? Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Roy! In this link you'll find several good pics of this beast: http://www.airliners.net/search/photo.search?regsearch=165188&distinct_entry=true As for the decals, you're right, there's none....I ended up printing my own decals based on the photos, but it's part of the fun!!!

dustiepal Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Dave Roof is coming out with makings that may help with this type of build, here is a link http://forum.largescaleplanes.com/index.php?showtopic=42741 Hope that this helps some people out I think it gives a viable option to the sqaudron markings on the aircraft. Enjoy; Dave Petriw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
