1/48 F/A-18C Werewolves of Beaufort decal sheet

Product # 48-185

Product Article by Steve Bamford on Mar 22 2012

 

 

This decal sheet from Twobobs includes enough markings for three complete aircraft from VMFA-122.  VMFA-122 has just recently changed their monicker from the Crusaders to the Werewolves and they have some new tail art to kick it all off!

CO, XO and a line jet are captured on this decal sheet.  The tail art for the CO jet along with some cloud details for the XO jet are printed using a four-color process in order to capture this artwork in its truest form.

Very cleanly marked aircraft and there is no stencil data existent on these three aircraft other than the marking on the inside of the nose gear door.

Authorization to place the Crew Names for all three aircraft has been secured from the squadron.  These have been added to this sheet and are contained on the tail art insert.  Thanks to Capt. Myler and Cpl. Smith for their assistance.
