--------------------

Here's a review of the new 1/48 and 1/35 sheet from Twobobs.  

Another shark mouth Whiskey!  This sheet is a combo sheet with both 1/48th and 1/35th markings

  • AH-1W HMLA-169

Recommended Kits:

  • 1/48th Scale Italeri AH-1W Whiskey Cobra
  • 1/35th Scale MRC/Academy AH-1W Whiskey Cobra

The decals are beautifully printed, and are clear and sharp. The white markings are nice and bright. Some of the markings are 2 piece decals, ensuring proper color and registration.

 

There are 2 sheets included, the main sheet and a smaller insert.

The instructions contain color painting and marking guides. There is also a large, front view of the actual helicopter. Also in the instructions is a detailed description of the AH-1W NTS upgrade and a picture and description of Cobra Company's 1/35th upgrade aftermarket set.

Special thanks go to Mike Pister.

Thanks to Two Bobs for the review sample.
