I'm doing the 75th FS Tiger Sharks
Based at Bagram, these were some of the birds my buddy would've guarded...
I am in stencil hell right now-- I have the bottom, top, and one side down so far

Still a ways to go....

They were TDY at Bagram. 75th is part of 23rd Wing out of Moody for some time now.

Excellent choice

Thanks!
Yeah- I went through schemes I could find online with him and he seemed excited about the 75th- not sure but it must hold some significance to him so I'm happy to oblige

Decals and stencils done-- now I need to attach the fiddly bits and nail down the nose to a base of some sort...

Yes indeed!
Just in case, I know you're not quite there yet, but... the muzzle portion of the gun should be dark metallic.
