Third one down: looks like the Brits are having an Obergefreiter do the roundell

It does look like it. He was probably a sign writer who had been doing a similar job for the Luftwaffe.

Very nice Chris. What's the stick for Bill?

Nice, Chris, but do Spanish Bf 109s qualify as 'captured'? Like the Deutche Wellingtonflugzeug.

Very nice Chris. What's the stick for Bill?

Geo

It's to rest the wrist of the 'working' hand on, to make for a steady stroke at a given distance. So simple, yet so effective.

 

[Gnomey]

Good shots guys!

 

[vikingBerserker]

I agree, very cool!

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Excellent set of photos Chris! Very cool!

That's it for the stick.
Acts as a bridge over wet paint. Can use it to arcs, straight edge for straight lines.
And whacking people for asking what the stick is for!!!!!

Oh, I also have one that is a golf driver shaft for a long one.

I know! I Know!! I saw the dark roundels and didn't look at the pic thoroughly. But what the 'ell!

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Found this one just now. Very interesting.

 

[vikingBerserker]

That actually looks pretty sweet!

How about a Japanese Fw190A-5?

 

[Wurger]

The plane wasn't captured. But looking interesting with the Hinomaru.

 

[GrauGeist]
