It's just about time to start with the paint.
Does anyone know what color in the Model Master range of enamel paints to use for U.S. Army armor? Olive Drab? Field Drab? or something else? I think I was in grade school the last time I painted anything "Army"

 
I usually just mix Dark Green and Dark Earth until it looks right. So much weathering, fading, dust and dirt, that you can get away with 'something close'.
 
A repaint of the FineMolds Judy, I tried to loosely replicate the wear on the upper wings but I'm not to happy with the results so I may touch that up. And, of course, I had to muck up the decals a bit....but they did work well the one(s) I have on.
 
Here's one that sneaks out of the boxes now and then, a bit of a fantasy wiffer project. Not so much a '46er as an alternate '45, well in my view anyway. If anyone has the Dragon G-1G/G10 kit they could part with the fuselage extension from, or even an old fuselage, I would greatly appreciate acquiring it.
 
Judy looks good.

nsmekanik - would a JU88A-4 be of any use ?
I have a scrap model I bought for spares, assembled but not painted, and it's more or less complete from the cockpit joint aft. Maybe 'chop and shut' to make the extension required ?
Forgot to add -- mine is 1/48th scale.

Great stuff guys!

Especially that Stealth Ship Jim! Just like the real thing - can't even see it by looking at it!

( BTW, where did you find colour pics? Been looking everywhere... )
