Fantasy Printshop


A


new addition to the
Fantasy Printshop range
is a selection of stripes in
a whole range of useful colours,
produced in two versions. The
product numbers in the range
600-613 supply thin stripes
from .25 to 9 mm, while those
in the range 620 to 636 are
between 7-13 mm in width.
These stripes have a number
of uses, limited only by your
imagination. I have used the black
ones for getting a sharp edge on
anti-glare panels and the thicker
florescent orange to add nose stripes
to a 1/48 scale IDF Magister trainer.

ho doesn’t like F-16
Aggressor schemes?
Especially as it
gives you the chance to model
a Viper that is not finished
in air superiority greys.
The 18th AGRS, based in
Alaska, was responsible for the
attractive winter splinter scheme,
and over the last two years have
carried on painting their F-16s
in two more versions of this
scheme, in either two shades
of blue and grey or black-green
and tan. This sheet also covers
one example in the original
white, black, and grey scheme.
But that’s not all! We also
have five aircraft in schemes
that are described as Post-Depot
Ferry schemes. This appears
to be the base colours applied
before the splinter camouflage
is added. So we have overall
grey or black aircraft with red
or yellow serials, tail numbers,
and national insignia.
These sheets include colour
matches to all major ranges,
though only the Mr. Paint range
from Slovakia has them all.

CONCLUSION
For aggressor fans, this is another
great addition to Two Bobs’
extensive range of sheets covering
these uniquely-coloured aircraft.
Even better, the sheet has also
been released 1n 1/72 scale (72-107)
and 1/48 scale (48-262). I would
suggest purchasing these ASAP as
the aggressor sheets tend to sell out
fast and are normally not reprinted.
In the UK this sheet is available
from Hannants and worldwide from
http://www.twobobs.net. We thank them
for supplying the review sample.
