Full Color Placement Guideline

Designed to replicate the paint scheme on Sukhoi Su-30 demonstration aircraft, these F-15 markings are for the only aircraft of the 65th Aggressor Squadron to be painted in this manner. My copy of the decals has all three scales represented, 72nd, 48th and 32nd. The one thing about Twobobs products is the level of research that goes into a product. This sheet is no different.

The instruction sheet is printed on high, full color paper and contains some small photos of the real thing. The instructions provide a listing of the accessories that are available, and not just the ones available through Twobobs. The background of the full color instruction sheet will aid and inspire the modeler. The instructions provide four-view drawings that provide the modeler with an excellent reference for markings placement. This aircraft will be a masking “fun time”.

The decals are printed by Microscale, with the two large sheets being in perfect register with plenty of colors. The decals are on three separate sheets. One sheet is 5x8 and it includes the 1/72nd and 1/48th scale markings, as well as some 1/32nd ones. The next sheet is slightly smaller at 4.5x7 and has all the remaining 1/32nd scale decals. A very small sheet of 1x2 has the flare and chaff dispenser and some decals for the wheel chocks. This little sheet is slightly off-register on the white but they will add to the Wheeliant chocks should you have them. This is a nice touch. All in all, this product is a very complete package.

Twobobs definitely has some of the best aircraft decals in the world. The level of research shows the passion that Twobobs has for this subject matter. Microscale-printed decals and high quality instructions – everything you could ask for in a decal product.

This product is highly recommended!

Thanks to Twobobs and IPMS/USA for the review copy. You can obtain yours by contacting Twobobs directly or through various hobby shops and online retailers.

Reviewer Bio

Floyd S. Werner Jr.

Building models since the age of 7, I’ve become known for my Bf-109s and helicopters. I currently run Werner’s Wings. I was previously the ‘star’ of the Master Class Model Building Video series. I’ve been published numerous times on various website, including Hyperscale and ARC. My work has been in FSM and Great Scale Modeling 2001, as well as, numerous other model magazines. I’m a published author with my Squadron/Signal Walkaround book on the Kiowa Warrior. My models have continuously won many regional and national awards. My unique model photography gives my models instant recognition for their historical perspective.

I’m a retired from the Army after 21 years of flying Cobras and Kiowa Warriors, including tours in Iraq, Bosnia, Korea, and Germany. I’m also a retired Flight Officer for the Baltimore City Police and flew their helicopters chasing bad guys. I’m currently flying Cobras and Hueys with the Army Aviation Heritage Foundation.

I’ve been married to my high school sweetheart, Yvonne, for 42 years. Our daughters have blessed us with six grandchildren. My passions continue to be his family, friends, helicopters, models and airplanes, especially the Bf-109 and my beloved AH-1 Cobra. My motto has always been - MODELING IS FUN!
