Ijust finnished redoing the stripes on

i would like to see pictures.
you can post pictures by going to: webshots.com
if you have a pc you download a small program... and its worth it trust me.
if you have a mac, its a little harder... don't bother downloading the program, just use the site to upload.
basic mebership is free and it is very very well put together.

Hey, you did a great job on the Spitfire!! Sure looks different. Now why 21st didn't do that in the first place I don't know. Interesting paint scheme on the 190. What's the inspiration??

I was just trying to create a cammo scheme
like they used on the 190's.
since I don't have a airbrush, I had to use
full sized spray cans.
Thats why there is no small cammo marks
along the fuselage.
Just an experiment..

Could someone possibly post the XD D-day Spit before and after modification? I would like to see a comparison of incorrect and correct side by side.
Yhanks,

The stripes are reversed.... it should be three
white stripes, and two black, just like on the p-47
peg o my heart. The spits came with three black
and two white. It's not that hard to fix. Just use
good masking tape so the paint don't bleed thru.
I did mine in about an hour and a half.
