ziggyfoos Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 (edited) see more recent 2022 posts for updated info since original obsolete post This next AOAdecals sheet was in the making for awhile and of course KH bellied up in the meantime, but this weekend I still went ahead and finished the last squadron I planned to cover. This preview image (ignore the pink) is simply a data dump to show most of the schemes' decals, the actual layout of the sheet(s) hasn't begun yet and also not shown yet is a separate data/stencil sheet. Estimating a fall/winter release. Due to space restrictions not sure if all will make the final cut, as of now could include up to sixteen(!) options: HS-5 Nightdippers (HH-60H & SH-60F) HS-11 Dragonslayers (HH-60H & SH-60F) HSL-51 Warlords (SH-60B) HSL-43 Battle Cats (SH-60B) HSM-46 Grandmasters (MH-60R) HSM-48 Vipers (MH-60R) HSM-70 Spartans (MH-60R) HSM-73 Battlecats (MH-60R) HSC-9 Tridents (MH-60S) HSC-11 Dragonslayers (MH-60S) HSC-15 Red Lions (2x MH-60S) HSC-22 Sea Knights (MH-60S) HSC-28 Dragon Whales (MH-60S) Edited October 11, 2022 by ziggyfoos thierry laurent, reconspit, Kagemusha and 4 others 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 I will get one without a second of hesitation as I do not want to build only the high viz schemes. Excellent Idea to cover the five released Navy kits as you will maximise the sheet attractivity. Wonderful! Last, it seems KH molds were negociated, weren't they? If that is confirmed I'm sure we will not wait long before seeing the helos coming back. ziggyfoos 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Williams Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 I will absolutely buy. I didn’t care for the fact the almost all of the kit decals schemes were hi-viz custom schemes. I prefer the toned down tactical schemes and markings. ziggyfoos and thierry laurent 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya same, I don't care for what are to me very gaudy/garish special high viz schemes that I have no interest in. That's the reason I held back picking up many of the USN H-60 kits until I decided I wanted to do the schemes that interested me. That's great if the KH kits return.

Collin Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Too bad...no HX-21 R/S test birds in the mix. Any chance of them making it above the cut line? Collin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collin Sorry, highly doubtful. I'm not that familiar with HX-21, but the ones I've seen were very generic looking? Like any decal releases, there's a ton of possible squadrons and timeframes to include and it's just a matter of having to pick/choose. I already have I think too many to reasonably include and I tried to pick a variety of standard low-viz ones that some "flair" for interest.

I have the USMC 1/48 F-4 sheets coming hopefully in Sept and I need to recover from those first so the H-60 sheet probably no earlier than October. Price TBD, need to get the final sheet layouts done and instructions complete before price is set. reconspit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RNoAF Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Are you planning to release more F-4B decals in 1/32? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcatfreak Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 These are great news!! I have already 8 Kitty Hawk SH/MH/HH-60 kits and will def buy the low viz markings and stencil sheets The Kitty Hawk kit decals are crap, wrong colours and bad quality... I am looking forward to the profil pictures of each option that will be made it on the sheet. Are you later planning a sheet with correct high viz markings, Aggressor and test or Rescue birds? Can´t wait to get more infos on that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although the various S decals would also work for the Academy kit, with exception possibly of the HSC-22 option - I don't know if the tails differ much between the kits (I don't have the Aca kit).

No, the F-4B decals I'm releasing are 1/48 RNoAF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
