THIS IS A PAINT KIT NOT AN AIRCRAFT!

VERSION 1.3 and above PAINT KIT!
* do NOT apply to F/A-18C or D v1.2 and below

SEE IMAGES ABOVE FOR v1.2 VERSUS v1.3 results. Version Shana v1.3 ONLY.

VMFA-232 CAG LIVERY DUO PACK.

TWO LIVERIES INCLUDED!
Paint Kit for Shana Aircraft's F/A-18C and F/A-18D Hornet.
This paint kit comes with two liveries:

REPLICA SERIES
True to life single seat F/A-18C Hornet, squadron VMFA-232 "Red Devils" 01/WT BuNo 165186, flown by Lt. Col. Daniel L. Shipley, call sign "Knuckles" in Afghanistan (see images above).

ALTERNATE SERIES
Alternate version for the two seat F/A-18D Hornet inspired by "Knuckles" VMFA-232 Hornet. Used a 01/NH, USS Nimitz scheme with a date of manufacture BuNo (17/04/18). You can fly the Marines colors with a friend while keeping a similar look to the replica aircraft.

If you are an advanced user this kit also provides you with the means to personalize each livery with your name (and on the D model case also the co-pilot's name) placed on the aircraft. Related note cards and guide textures included FOR THE NAMES ONLY.

This F/A-18C was flown by Lt. Col. Daniel L. Shipley in real life and it has the real BuNo, markings and his name on. You can still replace his name by yours if you wish.
If you would like to revert to the REPLICA just use the C model paint box again, but I recommend saving a REPLICA and applying your name to a copy if you wish to have your name on the C model. :)

THIS IS A v1.3 KIT - do NOT apply to older versions of the aircraft - please make sure you have the latest update - v1.3 or higher!
See images above for results of the same texture applied to v1.2 and v1.3 - and that is just a detail. Version 1.3 has a more accurate and work friendly frame, please update asap.

Detailed instructions included.

More paint kits available from Eight Shades of Blue. You can send a note card to Asra Kron (x4ten resident) in case you need unique custom work.

Enjoy your liveries!

These look very nice, I hope to see even more to chose from in the near future. Would also be nice to see some of the Aggressor paints used.
