I'm looking for the AC-130 decals from this sheet for a commission job. Any leads would be appreciated.   |

Need to build 80 kits per year until I'm 100 to deplete my stash. Maybe I should sell a couple.

1/48. The manufacturer says he's wont be reprinting them; however, I found the nose art online and can probably make my own.

Dang. Let me know how things work out for you with the AC-130...I've got one in the stash that I wasn't planning on selling, but if you're hard up I can part with it (and build the C-130H "instead").

Well, he's providing both kits so I'm set on that. The kit is the old C-130 with a good basic interior but the guns are only tacked onto the outside. Not good for leaving the ramp open unless you want to do a LOT of scratch building. The fit is pretty good so far. I'd read that there were major problems with the fuselage seams but I'm test fitting as I go and the parts seem to line up pretty well even with interior assemblies dry fitted. I found the nose art he wants online and will download and print it on white decal paper.
