Yeah some decal aftermarket would be nice. I am wondering if the 1/32 vs. 1/35 or that they are doing both scales apparently might have put off some decal companies? I personally had a couple old sheets in the stash so have some options but some new would be good also....


Maybe AoA will have something in the works. Definitely seems like something directly up their alley. Or Floyd Werner.

  How’s SH’s resin look on previous releases of theirs?   


Looking at my Tempest and Ju-88 kit, very good quality resin. They are part of CMK, so it makes sense. 


That Hi-Tech Cobra kit looks like the one to buy.

1/35th: I question your business model.

1/32nd: Yeah, I don’t get it.

ICM: What

 

What's the difference between a happy, well-fulfilled modeller and a unicorn? There's isn't one.... 'cos neither creature actually exists.

It's weird that the box art shows a Cobra with no inner pylons.   Don't think I've ever seen a picture of one in that config.   Anywhoo...  From over on BritModeler, here are the decal options.    I'm kinda digging "Wretched Mildred, version 1".  Wonder what it says in Japanese (?) on the tail boom and under the canopy?

The CAD drawings look very impressive.   Hopefully the real deal will as well.

Wonder if SH will go to the trouble of downsizing this update set when the 35th scale Snake gets released?

Or hope that Master models do a brass one. They did a gun and pitot set for the 1/35 Hind so it is possible.

 

RB does a 7.62 minigun barrel set in brass in 1/35 so they could scale theirs up too.

Im thinking about using a Master 1/72 M61, it scales out very close.

Does anyone know how or when some cunning Australian zapped the camouflaged one? I'm aware of OV-10's being zapped constantly by RAAF exchange aircrew but a Cobra is new to me
