Euro Decals 1/48 North American F-100D Supersabre Collection Part 2
By Jacob Russell
This is the second of Fantasy Printshop's exciting new 1/48th scale decal sheets for the North American F-100D Super Sabre in United States Air Force service. It has 4 more very colorful aircraft options, as follows:
"FW-151", F-100D Super Sabre, 56-3151 of the 481st Tactical Fighter Squadron, 27th Tactical Fighter Wing, USAF, Cannon Air Force Base, New Mexico, 1959. Overall natural metal with green nose band, fin and rudder, both of which are outlined in white.
2) "FW-056 ", F-100D Super Sabre, 56-3056 of the 524th Tactical Fighter Squadron, 27th Tactical Fighter Wing, USAF, Cannon Air Force Base, New Mexico, 1959. Overall natural metal with yellow flash on the fin and rudder, which is outlined in black.
3) "FW-862 ", F-100D Super Sabre, 56-2862 of the 454th Tactical Fighter Squadron, 323rd Fighter Bomber Wing, USAF, Bunker Hill Air Force Base, New Indiana, 1957. Overall natural metal with a blue nose band and flash on the fin and rudder. Both are outlined with bands of black checks.
4) "FW-933", F-100D Supersabre, 56-2933/ "CANDI II", of the 1st Fighter Day Squadron, 413th Fighter Day Wing, USAF, George Air Force Base, California 1959. Overall natural metal with 2 red nose, fin and rudder bands, all of which are outlined in white.
Fantasy Printshop printed these decals and they are superb. They are crisply printed, fully legible, in register and have excellent color. The decal sheet doesn't include any stencils, which you can find on Fantasy Printshop's F-100D Insignia and Stencil sheet.
I've always been a Super Sabre fan. They were exciting aircraft finished with some of the 50's most colorful markings. If you're looking for a colorful 1/48th scale F-100D you'll have 4 great options to choose from with this exciting new Euro Decals sheet. I recommend these decals and I would like to thank Fantasy Printshop for the review sample.
