With the release of the new F-84E by Revell, that has given Superscale the opportunity to provide some new sheets on the aircraft. Many of the most colorful planes were bedecked with all sorts of markings and the one on this sheet is no exception. In fact, there are so many markings that there was no room for common things like insignia and data sheets so you'll have to get those from the kit decals.

This particular plane is from the 527 FBS / 82 FBG. To say it was checks galore would be pretty well stating the obvious. The forward half of the plane was in black and yellow and that aft portion in red and white.

You'll have to do some painting on this one, specifically, the tip tanks will have to be done in yellow and the tail in white prior to applying the decals. From the looks of the sheet, I'd say that Superscale has gone to extra effort to make sure that these will fit properly. If you look at the tip tank decals, they are in thin segments to be sure that the checks will all line up properly when applied. A good move on their part as tip tank decals can be especially difficult to get right.

This sheet is bound to add some spice to your next Thunderjet model.

Please note that the sheet may look a bit short as I'll often crop off common markings to save on file size.
