SAR_Guy Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Hi just wondering if anyone has heard if anyone is planning to produce decals for this aircraft as I have a 1/32 f-16 that would look real nice in this scheme Thanks Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotthldr Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Three Star Decals have just released them in 1/32, 1/48 and 1/72, awaiting confirmation weather it's the new current scheme as seen at RIAT or last years scheme. http://www.hafonanniversaryandretiredcolors.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAR_Guy Posted July 29, 2015 Author Share Posted July 29, 2015 Thanks I checked the web site, do they sell the decals directly or where do you buy them Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niki Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Oh, last year's scheme would be so much nicer!... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotthldr Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Confirmed as last years scheme 'Zeus II'. The current scheme 'Zeus III' I believe is in the pipeline. Order direct from source contact details should be in the above link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niki Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Just a heads up: After using the above linked contact form, I have received a reply from Col. (ret.) Tripolitakis with payment details and so forth. Really looking forward to this one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niki Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Ok, decals arrived in record time. The good [not so] old colonel is a man of his word. The set is made up by two laser printed sheets: the stencils (at the bottom in the below picture) are printed on a clear decal sheet, while the actual special scheme design elements are printed on a white decal sheet. There are painting instructions as well as instructions on how to handle the decals (pretty straightforward, actually, from what I can read - although there are all those complicated tail surfaces... ). Additionally, right next to the decal instructions there was also a double side printed little sheet of [semi] gloss paper containing blue Remove Before Flight tags, as they appear on the Zeus machine when at rest. Large image: https://farm1.staticflickr.com/533/20437711986_bd455d5063_o.jpg If I had the talent and knowledge, i would have made the tail motifs a tad brighter as they appear a bit darker when compared to pictures of the real deal. But anyway, I am very happy someone managed to bring this scheme out in decal form, as I was more than afraid that this year's revised Zeus would steal the show and make this former version redundant - at least with any decal manufacturer. I cannot understand why the Greek Air Force felt the need to switch to an ugl... another scheme!? "Zeus II" is The Best! Many thanks, Scotty, for the hook up! Cheers, Niki 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAR_Guy Posted August 11, 2015 Author Share Posted August 11, 2015 Thanks for the info I will have to look at ordering this set and some others Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dermo245 Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Just had an email from Giannis about the decals for 'Zeus III' - his work was delayed as he recovered from a shoulder injury but they should be ready by the end of September!

spfparker Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 I have just ordered some decals from Giannis- he did mention that he is 'finish this project' soon - so looks as if he is stopping producing the decals. So if anyone is thinking of ordering - do so soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
