This new decal sheet from Cutting Edge Modelworks includes markings for three different 1/32 F-100D's in baremetal as well green/brown camo paint schemes.  

The first aircraft is a F-100D-50-NH flown by Lt Joe Vincent with 31 TFW/309 TFS out of Tuy Hoa, RVN in the spring of 1970.  The paint scheme for this aircraft is FS 30219 Tan and FS 34102 Green and FS 34079 Dark Green on top and FS 36622 Gray on the underside.  The noseart is a 3 leaf clover with the name Colleen in white script on the green clover.  On the top of the tail is cartoon artwork of an attacking Donald Duck with a lightning bolt in one hand and a plank with a big nail through it. 

The second aircraft is a F-100D-26-NA  55-3604 flown by Lt Col Harold Comstock with the 27th TFW/416th TFS out of Bien Hoa in July of 1966.  The paint scheme for this aircraft is overall bare metal with what appears to be and FS 36622 Gray on the underside.  This plane spots noseart of a skull wearing a leather flying helmet with goggles as well as Snoopy artwork and plenty of bomb mission markings.  This aircraft has 2 blue angled arcs on both sides of the tail.

The third aircraft is a F-100D-21-NA flown by Major Don Schmenk with 31 TFW/308 TFS out of Tuy Hoa, RVN in late 1969.  The paint scheme for this aircraft is FS 30219 Tan and FS 34102 Green and FS 34079 Dark Green on top and FS 36622 Gray on the underside.  The noseart is white script that reads "Mary Jane" with a tiny cartoon drawing next to it of "Jerry" the cartoon mouse from the Tom and Jerry cartoon on the left side.  On the right side of the nose is the script "Carol Ann".  On the top of the tail is a white and green checkered fin flash. 

The instructions are clear and include 2 views of each aircraft.  The decals are beautifully printed on 3 decal sheets including national insignias.  

A very nice decal sheet with these 3 Huns with noseart

I would like to thank Cutting Edge Modelworks for providing me with this review sample.
