I'm working on a few F-16's at the moment but am hitting dead ends. I need an air national guard shield (like this one), but instead of colored it needs to be dark grey like it is seen on several ANG F-16 tails.

I also need more pictures of this plane here (high resolution and or tail pictures especially):

I can't for the life of me find either of these online. I found some decal sheets of that red tail but they are far too low resolution to draw an accurate tail off of.

Huge thanks to anyone who can help :engel016:
 
I'll just modify that existing colored shield to be grey. I'd still like some help with that red tail though :kiss:
 
There is a pretty tail, we have 6 F-16's over here at KGRB like that except no madison but marked Green Bay. I like the Red Tail over the grey. Goes great with the blue tail.

They have F16's at Austin Straubel? lol news to me :redf:

They are the red tail ones? I thought there was only one red one and one blue one? And the blue one replaced the red one because the blue is 60th anniversary and the red is 50th. I guess I'm way off in my thinking lol. Is there a way you could snap some pics for me? I'm sure I could sneak in a GRB variant... ;)

The grey tail should be done s**n. Like tomorrow s**n.

BTW Tim do you have an instant messenger program? It'd be cool to chat sometime.
 
maybe this ones can help..You can desaturate to grey and edit it a bit..
 
Green Bay has 6 F-16's as were the primary Homeland Defense point for WI due to our location. Yep 1 of the f-16's is a red tail, squad leader, had to recheck KGRB Northcom flightline. The Squad leader always flies the nice tails, everyone else takes the blah grey.

F-16's rotate with the F-15's about every 3 months.
 
Lookin pretty good to me...

EDIT: I just removed the leading edge strip because this variant doesn't have it.

Though I hate the sky theme I picked in REX. Time to go back to what I was using before.
