Woody V Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Figured it was time to make it easier for everyone to find what's new (and old) at Archer so here I am. Please feel free to post questions, comments and suggestions but keep in mind that I don't live on my computer so if I don't respond quickly it doesn't mean I hate you. D.B.

Woody V Posted January 28, 2021 Author Share Posted January 28, 2021 For those of you who missed this in the Vendor forums, Archer is offering a $25 discount on our newly announced rivet skin kit for the Trumpeter SBD.

Woody V Posted January 28, 2021 Author Share Posted January 28, 2021 (edited) Here's a LINK to the complete list of Surface Details that we currently have for aircraft. We also have this PDF catalog of all our Surface Details that you can download. The catalog has full size samples of what's on the sheet so you can visually match up what we have to what you need. First, download the catalog to your desktop and print it out full size. Once you find what you need, just click the illustration to be taken directly to that item on our website. Thank you!

Juggernut Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 HI Woody! Nice to see you as a sponsor. I hope it's worth your while. I'll be definitely be trying some of your rivets and other details in the near future but also wanted to ask you about your discontinued dry transfer line.... Do you have any plans to transpose any of those sheets to NCF, Nano-Film or AFT decals? I'm primarily interested in the 1/16 stuff (mainly unit markings, interior stencils, and the whatnot) but I may also be interested in the 1/35 "disc camo" sheets you used to have for Panthers. I imagine the disc camo might be a little hard to do with a decal but if anyone could do it, I think you could. Thanks, Tim Woody V and CANicoll 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_Kevin Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Great to see you with your own space here, Woody! For those who were not aware, Archer has been an LSP sponsor for a while now, but this is the first time that Woody has elected to go with a dedicated sponsor forum.

Hawkwrench Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Glad to have you here with your own spot Woody. I've used your rivet details and they are the bomb! Any chance you're still gonna do a rivet skin sheet for the H-60 helicopters? You talked about possibly doing a sheet over in Pete's HH-60G build thread awhile back. Hope so!

Hi Tim, 1/16th armor is a problem because of the size of the decals. Everything is priced based on how many individual units that can fit on the base stock, and although 1/16 has an enthusiastic following that market is quite small. Pile that on top of the fact that our new technology is expensive and the retail price has to accommodate dealer discounts and the numbers simply don't add up. Right now I'm putting all of my efforts into converting our most popular dry transfer sheets to the new stuff, so I wouldn't look for any re-releases of 1/16, but 1/32 aircraft is a different story. I have some pretty interesting stuff in the archives that should be re-released and that's definitely near the top of my list of priorities.

Pete had me make a custom sheet for his project that was nothing more than straight rows of rivets, plus he picked up some stock sheets to complete his project. As far as a rivet skin kit goes, that's months of work just developing it and although it's in the queue, the TBM is next on the list and with any luck at all it will be released by the end of the year. If you what Pete got, DM me and I'll see what I can do. Woody Fanes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkwrench Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Will do. Let me get with Pete and see exactly what he ordered and then I'll DM you soon. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m glad I bought a good supply of the 1/16 dry transfer stuff when you had it. Also looking forward to what you’ve got in the works.
