1/32 F/A-18A NSAWC Top Gun Hornets decal sheet

Product #32018

Review by Steve Bamford on Nov 3 2003

As a follow up to their hugely successful 1/48th scale sheet, The Twobobs have released their NSAWC Hornet sheet in 1/32nd scale.  Both of the original aircraft portrayed on their previous sheet are the subject matter of this "sausage finger" scale release.

There are enough stencil options on this sheet for one complete aircraft.  Modelers who are into doing some creative painting will be sure to take the Top Gun logos off this sheet and using them to model some of the other NSAWC Hornets that are out there!  The complex tail markings have been broken up to ensure excellent registration.  One set of LEX walkways is also included. 

This is one of the most popular sheet Twobobs has ever produced.  decals are printed by Microscale and both decal sheets are beautifully printed.  The paint scheme does require the modeller to line up the airbrushed camo demarcation lines by the left rear horizontal stab with the two colour decals for the word "NAVY"....not  a big deal....just something to watch out for if you build the desert scheme Hornet.  For painting....FS#'s and paint numbers for 4 different brands of paint are included in the 2 page colour instructions.

 

 

Guys have been screaming at the Twobobs for this sheet in the larger scale and the Twobobs are more than happy to oblige once again.

This is a great sheet and highly recommended for anyone building the 1/32 Academy Hornet.

This sheet is available through http://www.twobobs.net/ and select US Hobby Shops.  Overseas customers can purchase these from Twobobs site or through Twobobs network of overseas distributors.  Remember, shipping is always FREE to US Customers at Twobobs!!
