Thanks Guys...some decals on now...from the look of it most of the stencilling on these JG53 camo schemed aircraft have been covered over during the painting process.....

Interesting scheme for sure there Wayne and the stenciling thing "sounds like you are trying to get out of some work" :lol: Cheers
 
Pity they didn't paint the aircraft one colour overall though - make our lives even easier !
Looking great Wayne.

After the Ju88....why not...:D

Seriously, JG53 experimented with various patterns on a number of their 109's and careful viewing of a number of aircraft images there is a distinct lack of visible stencils...other than the some obvious ones and some on the lower fuselage numbers.
 
Minor decals added and another gloss coat on to seal 'em in! Flatt coat tomorrow...

Looks great Wayne. What led you to conclude that the swastika backgound was white as opposed to masked over RLM 65?

It's possible that it's 65 too, but there are examples of a complete white backgound...when you compare the masked off W.Nr. background to the Swastica background and kill markings it is more likely to be white than 65. Also you would notice a difference between the swastica arms of white and 65 fill in if it were 2 different colours they appear the same in the B/W image.
