FirstLook

 

Just in time for the release of Academys 1/32 F/A-18 Hornet, the Two Bobs decide to scale up the very popular 1/48 NSAWC Aggressor Hornet sheet to 1/32. This sheet covers two very cool Aggressor Hornets in two very different color schemes. These markings make the usual overall Grey ones look just that, Grey!!

 

The first of the two is a very smartly dressed “Flanker” scheme of three blues and a white nose. The second scheme is a desert marked Bug using tan and Brown. I believe due to the Grey leading edges on the tan/brown one that it is supposed to make a Mig-29 silhouette.

 

 

 

 

The sheet includes very well done aircraft specific markings for both jets. For instance you get brown intake warnings and NAVY markings for the Desert marked jet. The decals are in perfect register. A second sheet of walkway decals is also included along with the tan/brown National insignias and black Lightning Bolts for the vertical fin of the tan/brown jet.

 

Per usual with Two Bobs you get several color photographs of both aircraft as well as color profiles for the markings.

 

All in all if you want to do a VERY colorful Bug that not everyone is doing, grab this sheet. It is a great sheet and has to be seen to be appreciated. Anyone with an Academy BUG should consider getting it especially if you are tired of the everyday Greys that you always see.
