The stickers I used are these: Conquest X-30 (2002 - GI Joe) - $12.00 : Cobra Stickers, Replacement and restoration stickers for classic G.I. Joe vehicles. They were the most "subdued" insignias I could find (a lot less red, white and blue than the others). I didn't use the big tail logo ones (I like your ghosts much better) and tried to spread out the colored stickers. My intention was to keep from defeating the visual stealth that the digicamo offered. I really need to post some pics of the final product. Maybe this weekend I can take some pics. We'll see. My son loves his Raptor as well. The hardest thing is to keep the wingtips on his, since he plays with his a lot more than I handle mine. Airshow season is coming up, so he'll likely be enjoying it even more soon. |

You just might know them... How have you been? I hadn't seen you guys around here lately, and wondered what new cool stuff you had been working on.

Post up some pics of the jets, I'd like to see them with the stickers. |

I posted the decals on ebay if anyone is interested. Sorry for the price, but they're really expensive to make. I have them listed as "Custom F-22 Raptor Skystriker Decals".
Thanks for all of the support! |

All I used was some Rust-oleum clean white primer that I had laying around the house. I was going to use Fusion, but the store only had gloss and I wanted something that was flat. I did not paint the tail.
Also don't use any harsh cleaners to get rid of the stickers. I recommend using rubbing alcohol. |
