The decals are on now, that shark's mouth was a pain! I'll have to fill in some with paint as I couldn't get it together properly at the front. The rest was ok though.
Here's it with the decals. The repairs on the mouth looked ok last night, until I saw the red had dried a bit darker.I'll try another red at some point, maybe the RLM red. It does look worse in the photos though.
I was also thinking of mounting it on a stand. Thoughts?
Thanks Evan, and yes I do. I think I have about 4 from 190s, and possible a couple from a Stuka. That said, I don't know if they'd be accurate? I'm not up on my pilot's uniforms, or if there were differences depending on the plane.
Looks great Cory, and the red doesn't look too bad to me. The crew would normally wear the one-piece flying suit, although of course climate etc might decide on other garments. Pilot had a seat-type parachute, bordfunker/gunner normally a back-pack chute.
