About product

Tiger stripes for the reconnaissance Hornet in 1:32

Four sheets of machine-cut shapes carry the whole striping pattern that covered the fuselage and the vertical tails of one of the most strikingly colored two-seat Hornets. The extent here is considerably greater than with the small framing sets: the stencils are laid onto large areas of the airframe and several shades are sprayed over them one after another.

The Bengals and their ATARS

Squadron VMFA(AW)-224 bears the nickname Bengals and a badge with a tiger's head; it is from that badge that the coloring the unit had sprayed onto one of its machines derives. The aircraft is the ATARS version, that is, an F/A-18D with a reconnaissance sensor block built into the nose in place of the cannon barrel. Hornets equipped this way provided tactical reconnaissance for the Marine Corps, and the unit operated them among other places in Iraq and at the Japanese base at Iwakuni.

Working with a large-area pattern

Work from the lightest shade to the darkest and let every layer dry properly, as otherwise the stripes will be torn out during removal. Press the stencils down with your fingers along their whole length, and at the transitions between the fuselage and the wing help them along by warming with a hair dryer. Apply the paint at right angles to the edge, so that it does not run under it.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers who want sprayed striping instead of a decal covering
  • Builders of large two-seat Hornets in 1:32 scale
  • Anyone interested in ceremonial and display colorings of the US Marine Corps
  • Advanced modelers who can manage multilayer spraying through stencils

Neither the airframe of the aircraft nor paints are in the package.

FAQ

Four sheets of pre-cut stencils, according to the manufacturer.

It replaces the striping covering, because the pattern is sprayed in paint. The small technical lettering has to be dealt with separately.

Rather not. Multilayer spraying through large-area stencils calls for practice and patience during removal.

It is a reconnaissance sensor block built into the nose of the aircraft in place of the cannon.
