One word: magnificent! Thx for sharing. Christophe

Thank you gentlemen. Christophe

Thank you all. The Thunderbolt is such a great medium for a huge choice of schemes, it is nice once in a while to get out of the beaten path! Christophe

Thank you! Just careful masking on a base of yellow.

Good evening all, Last in the series, a 1/48 scale P-47-D-30 of the 394th Fighter Squadron, 367thFighter Group. Pilot was Major C.F.MATHESON, C/O of the squadron. The plane is shown as it was just after the war and the location probably Eschborn Airfield in Germany. Have all a wonderful day, Christophe

Thank you Guenther, I am going there right away. Christophe

Thank you, will do just that. Chris

Good evening all, Hope you are all keeping well and safe. I have just made a start on Eduard 1/48 Albatros D.III Oeffag 253. There is a little bit of info with the kit about the rigging but nothing too detailed and I was wondering if anyone of you has any good info on that? Thank in advance, Christophe

Thx Dimmy, and as a coincidence, I just found the top picture that you posted a few minutes ago! Looks like it's a go then, but still there seems to be no certainty that it was white and some have said that it could have been a very light gray... Christophe

Hi everyone, While preparing and researching my next subject, Zvesda 1/48 Messerschmitt BF 109 F-4, I noticed that one of the two options proposes a somewhat unusual camo scheme (Black 1, Oblt. Max-Hellmuth Ostermann, 8./JG54 Grunherz in Russia in May 1942). It seems that only half the fuselage has received the white distemper camouflage (portside) as well as randomly applied to the wing surfaces... As anyone any pictures validating this scheme as I have not been able to find any yet? Any help will be very appreciated as usual, and I wish you all a great week-end. Christophe

Once again, thank you Mike. Christophe

Thank you Mike, this answers the question nicely (and I am glad that I painted the aft portion of the airplane "Chromate Yellow", as I have seen them painted interior green as well...) Christophe

Hi all, I am currently building Accurate Miniatures B-25 Mitchell, in its "Dirty Dora" scheme and I have not been so far able to find out what color the inside of the engine cowlings were... My best guess would be some sort of grey but if anyone here has the answer I would be very gratefull! Cheers, Christophe

Thank you tony. Christophe

Good day all, I am building Accurate Miniature (or Pro-Modeller) SB2C-4 Helldiver in the Atlantic scheme and I have chosen the below subject: The question that I have for this particular subject is; what color could the sliding part of the canopy be? It is obviously a different color from the Dark Gull Grey... My theory would be that it is a replacement and be might from a plane with either the 3 tones camouflage (pacific) or the overall Glossy Sea Blue. What are you thoughts gentlemen? Thx Christophe
