Pleased with how this turned out, kept it in pretty good nick seeing it had an extra dose of Special Camo applied.
Yellow 2 of 3/KG(J)54 was found at Praha Ruzyne airfield in Bohemia after the War ended where it was photographed in a damaged and derelict state.
Nothing is known of the pilot or of the aircraft's operational history, other than the fact it flew with KG(J)54's 3rd staffel. This is confirmed by it's yellow tactical number 2, KG54 'Totenkopf"emblem on the forward fuselage and the Blue/White Checkerband marking applied on the rear fuselage.
Wayne, what can I say, all superlative adjectives have been used. One of my favorite aircraft and I absolutely love that cammo scheme. Not to mention the "Goblin" on the starboard engine. Deliberate or accidental or my pareidolia at work? Anyone else see it?
