About product

Decals 1:48 North American F-100C Super Sabre, Skyblazers (Two Bobs)

A decal sheet in 1:48 scale from the maker Two Bobs, devoted to display Super Sabres. The product holds no plastic or other construction parts — you build the model from a kit you buy separately, and use this sheet to mark it.

The real subject

The F-100 Super Sabre was the first American production fighter able to exceed the speed of sound in straight and level flight. The C version added to that the ability to refuel in flight and the option of carrying armament under the wing, which moved the machine from a purely fighter role to a multi-role one. The Skyblazers were the display team of the United States Air Forces in Europe; in the second half of the 1950s they moved on to the Super Sabre and performed until the early 1960s. Their aircraft presented themselves in a natural metal finish completed by colored bands across the fuselage and the tail surfaces — a look that on a model calls for a carefully prepared gloss surface.

Application tips

Display schemes stand or fall with long striped decals. These are laid onto a curved fuselage in sections: first seat the motif in the middle, press it down with a soft brush and only then work it out toward the edges, so that it does not kink anywhere. Always support transitions over raised covers with a decal softener, and blot any excess water away with the edge of a tissue. If you are finishing the model as natural metal, count on a gloss metallic surface showing the decals up mercilessly — the slightest irregularity under the film will be visible. On polished metallic paints it is therefore usually necessary to use an intermediate coat of clear, so that the pigment is not rubbed off during work.

Who the sheet is for

  • builders of American equipment of the 1950s and 1960s
  • those interested in display and celebratory finishes
  • modelers who can manage a natural metal surface
  • collectors building a collection of display team aircraft

This is a standalone decal sheet. The kit, paints, clear coats and decal softener are not included in the package.

FAQ

The display team of the United States Air Forces in Europe. In the second half of the 1950s they flew Super Sabres, and they were active until the early 1960s.

No. The package holds decals only; you obtain the kit in 1:48 scale separately.

Seat it in the middle first, press it down with a soft brush and only then work it out toward the edges. Support the curvature with a decal softener.

Metallic paints rub off easily and irregularities under a decal show up clearly on the sheen. So lay an intermediate coat of clear before the decals.
