Sorry Guys and girls, I did not make the deadline with my model for the D-Day stripes comp. Will endeaver to finish the model soon. Work and home commitments got in the way!

I've got sky grey XF19 in Tamiya, but was not sure it was the right one

Thanks, Very comprehensive but i'm still non the wiser.

Hi tamy are saying use AS7 which is a spray can, but don't seen to do the same colour in small bottles? Revell no 43 any suggestions on best colour to use on a WW11 Thunderbolt welcome

26th march

Just got the replacement seatbelts, will hopefully start main body of the kit tomorrow, fingers crossed.

I've made a start! Best photo of cockpit as it comes out the box, messed up the decal instrument panel and seat belts, maybe not the best ones to try out Micro sol/set on first time around! So ended up painting the instruments, and will get a seatbelt to add to the seat.

Sorry Bill, in my enthusiasm to get this right have I infringed on copyright issues by posting them here??

Photo of the fox

Great and thaks fo rthe info, here is the finished leather patch Now I need a good photo of the fox, in the one I have what ever he is carrying does not show up too well.

The box ix open, the parts all cleaned and drying and the cockpit parts sprayed with grey primer- it's a start! next a coat of black before the green to show as shadow in the cockpit.

So the patch is right for the later picture of the same GI Jive plane?

I winder why he had a fox on the side?

I found a pic of his plane with red tail border, was that not the later group 1st SF?

Most ecellent!
