Is this close?

There appears to be a unit citation above the door on an image I saw but it is not clear enough. Do you know what it is and I can add it.

Captain Sim: Will the current paint kit work on the J model? If not will there be a J paint kit released?

The kit works on the "J" but it could do with tweaking to take into account the slight changes in certain fairings and stuff.

I see what you mean. The RI ANG J model has formation lights and one less piece of "glass" on each side. Plus a bunch of fairings you mentioned.

The old paint kit textures lack in this model.

To use the 'E' paintkit for the 'J', I overlaid the stock J textures over the paintkit, and then modified the kit to match, so I'd have the same details, then went to town painting.

The paint scheme looks perfect guys.  The unit citation is above the door and is red white and blue for service in Iraq.  Unfortunately the only way I can send a photo is via email.

I have a copy of the Iraq campaign ribbon. It has the colors of the Iraqi flag but not red, white & blue.

If you can point me to a site I should be able to duplicate it.

I have a close up photo but I am not sure how to attach it to the reply because I don't have a web site and I don't have your email.

If you downloaded any of my recent C-130 textures my e-mail address is there.

This has been uploaded to AVSIM. I added the USAF outstanding unit award to the aircraft.

Enjoy.
