Im watching this one with intent as I am wating for a 1/72 Jag for the GB here and on FSM. It looks pretty nice, so far. What's your source for markings and photos.

That would just be white with NATO green - nice easy paint job! 41 Sq. would be good, since they have a lot of winter paint scheme pics on their site. I'd like to depict the squadron badge on the intake trunk,too, as many of the photos show this. I imagine that at least a few of the Jags make a show stop or two somewhere along the line during deployment. Why else would the badge be prominently displayed on the trunk, if the planes were just going to fly around in the snow with the Norski's?. So I;d like to show that. Would you know where to get some of their Cross of Lorraine, 41 Sq fuselage badges in 1/72? Edited December 2, 2007 by dahut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dahut Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 I've learend another snag on all this Jaguar business - this time it's on a good way. Most of the pics of 41 Sq. Jags show them in green/white camo. On the other hand, most of the pics of 54 Sq. show them with grey/white camo. This opens more doors! Now I can do EITHER a 54 or 41 Sq Jag, depending on what decals I scan scurry up. How cool is that?? SO now I gotta re-ask my question: Where can I get EITHER 41 OR 54 Sq badges in 1/72 scale?

Gary West Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 I've learend another snag on all this Jaguar business - this time it's on a good way. Most of the pics of 41 Sq. Jags show them in green/white camo.On the other hand, most of the pics of 54 Sq. show them with grey/white camo. I presume that's because of time difference between them - 41 would have been a white distemper over the wrap round Green/Grey scheme whereas the Jag scheme had changed to all over Grey by the time 54 wore the arctoc scheme in 2005.

dahut Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 (edited) due to some excess of spare time(no exams till february) i decided to finish this jag.... hope u like it Indeed I do. I am doing a 1/72 Winter Jag for the GB - if it ever arrives. It will be mostly OOB; well, as much as I can do ANYTHING OOB. I will surely find something to augment... Nonetheless, I am filing your pics on this build as reference, so I appreciate it and might add youre doing a cracking nice job of it. It's a wonder that it is a salvage project.
