Those are hard decals to find and not cheap. I like the B-24D, "Green Dragon" but not paying $35 for 10 decals plus the paint scheme is a bit above my skill set. The book, "Assembly Ships of the Mighty Eighth" is a very nice book, 140+ pages. I've got decals for six P-47 "Formation Monitors"

While they were higher than the average set of decals I got them 15 for the red and white and 25 I think for the blue dots.
(OOPS, Not I was wrong. MUCH MOEER, I do need to pay closer attention )

Can you post some shots Vic? I'd love to see that.

I have a diorama planned for mine. This is my second SWS Horten, the plan being to make a section of the Gothaer Wagon Fabrik shed where the V3, V4 and V5 where found under construction. My original SWS Kit will become the almost complete V3 in front, and the new one as the V5 behind it, which was a complete frame (sans engines and woodwork), and was the prototype for the two- seat version. The V-4 was a complete frame incl. engines and support woodwork, but sans outer covering. That would be awesome to make, but not sure where it was - either in a side bay you can't see in the V3/V5 pics, or in a seperate shed. The leftover outer pieces of the V3/V5 will be placed around the shed, as there were components for 20 aircraft found alongside the completed airframes.

V3 as found by US troops, with V5 visible behind:
