1/32 Academy F-18 VMFA-232

[DDELK]

Hey all,

  So I’m building this model as a retirement project for the Squadron Commander of VMFA-232. His aircraft actually has the red lettering with white background “MARINES” below the tail section and also the same color for the aircraft number “01”.. the decals provided in the kit are obviously black letters and I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get these in the red color.. 

 

Thanks

dave

I suspect that you might be out of luck-  "Two Bobs" did a set for VMFA 232  in 1/48 which have the Red/white shadow MARINES, but cant find anything at the usual suspects in 1/32.  It might be worth asking Two Bobs to do a one-off run of the MARINES in the appropriate size?  I'll have another look around the web for any further hits.

Cheers,

Troffa
