Very nice. The archer on horseback emblem looks excellent against the grey scheme.:like:

Hello,Pete - Thank you.Thank you so much.Yes,the emblem breaks up the scheme although it was a bit of a challenge to get the decals to conform properly on the fin because of the pronounced blister fairings.A sharp blade and Microsol did the trick though.πŸ˜‰πŸ‘

Great looking AJ 37!

The native brave on a mustang is a throw-back to the mid/late 1940's, when the F 16 fighter wing in Uppsala took delivery of surplus P-51D Mustangs; Swedish appellation J 26. Some of the new mounts were decorated with the now iconic native-on-horseback:

The Mustang in Swedish Air Force service was used both as a fighter and as a photo recce plane, the S 26. The Mustangs were finally phased out in 1954.

Kind regards,

Hello,Pete - Thank you so much.Yes,the special tail markings add a welcome splash of colour against the grey.The tail decals needed a bit of cosmetic surgery to conform over the blister fairings but a sharp blade and Microsol took care of it.πŸ˜‰πŸ‘
