What's New This Week!

Hot Babe of the Week is courtesy of Daniel Soulaine once again. Daniel's the man! Helped us out quite a bit over here at Twobobs with his Centennial walk-arounds.

Spent last week in Washington DC for some meetings with customers. Best part of the trip was being able to grab some hot wings with my son over lunch. I always enjoy going to DC. So much history there and I've made so many friends through work; an absolutely great place to go on business trips.

Teri and I spent today doing some spring cleaning here in the office. We pretty much tore the entire office apart and got all the "dust bunnies" cleaned up and threw out a lot of stuff that we didn't need anymore. Hopefully I'll be able to become more efficient around here performing my daily Twobobs duties!

Decals In Work!

Added instruction sheet image of the back for the VX-31/VFA-204 sheet in this weeks update. I was able to get some work done while on the road on the 72nd scale versions of all these sheets and will preview those this coming Sunday.

The VFA-106 scheme has enough markings for both complete jets. I went ahead and printed the CoNA logo as well as the nose art on this guy using a 4-color process so I could get the colors "just so". There are subtle differences between the official logo, the external tank logo and the fuselage logo as they appear on the jet and I've captured those.







The VAQ-129 sheet also has enough stencils for both jets. The Prowler has a little something "extra" going on in that we've provided you with rudder markings that fit both the Monogram kit and the newer Kinetic kit. External tank markings are also included on this sheet. The white markings on this sheet are "double-layered" so you won't have any opacity or bleed through problems when you put this decal against a dark background.







VFA-122/VFC-12. I went ahead and did the white stripes on this guy after much consternation on whether to have the modeler paint the tail white and provide blue decals or provide white decals to go over the blue tail. Went ahead and took this route since I wasn't convinced that the blue stripes could be color matches accurately enough to the fuselage paint color. The white decals are double-layered with white so you won't have any problems with opacity. For you guys that opt to paint the white/blue tail stripes yourself, I've provided a blue "10" serial for the tail.<<br>








VX-31/VFA-204 below. In addition to the Centennial jets from both squadrons, I've included an A-4C from "back in the day" that was the motivating scheme for the Centennial scheme that VX-31 painted on their Hornet. The VFA-204 jet has tons of stencils on it, external fuel tank markings and as usual, the white is double-layered for maximum opacity with no bleed thru.









VX-9 "Easter Egg" Super Hornets. Full set of stencils for both jets are on this sheet and both intake and exhaust markings are also included for both jets!









As stated in previous newsletters, all of our CoNA sheets will include a 3" pressure sensitive sticker in each package. Use these for your display base or plaster that guy on your mini-fridge in your office!



Florida Makos, Snakes and Dragons and the F-4 Data Stencil sheet are also coming soon. Not sure which one's will show up here first but they're all out the door in the print qeue!











OK fellas, 48th is all done! 72nd/32nd here we go!!

After those are done, got lots more in the qeue that we had to hiccup on to get these Centennial sheets out! More to come!!



Once we get these sheets resized, we'll preview the instruction sheet images for the VFA-86 sheet plus some other surprises!

News on 3rd Party Friends of Twobobs!

Reminder to our customers that our remaining stock of Xtracrylics is discounted until they're gone. Not a whole lot left so get em while you can. The aircraft colors are pretty much out of stock so most of what's left is Luftwaffe and Armour colors.

All Xtractylics paint is discounted to $2.00 each while the larger size bottles of the various clearcoats and thinners are discounted to $3.00. We'll keep them discounted until they're all gone.

We've also decided to clear out our inventory of DACO decals. With our growing inventory slowly taking over all of our storage space here at Twobobs, we've made the business decision to not carry any more 3rd party sheets. Danny Coremans at DACO/ASTRA makes some great products as you all know. You can get these products through other distributors and retailers that he has throughout the world.

All DACO decals on our site are now 25% off until they're gone. Great deal!

Have a great week guys!
