Very professional work :D

I doubt it will be too long (all things considered) before 21c comes out with a similar repaint for their Avenger. It would seem to be a logical step, considering that they like to make aircraft in British markings as well as planes with invasion stripes :wink:

Beautiful, great job
I had thought about painting my Avenger like that, and I think I will
do you have any pics of the underside?

been away awhile working and my account became in active and all my posts are gone. thanks for the complements on this current paint job. this plane had quite a few problems to solve with all the masking on the windows. It really is the best to totally disassemble these giant planes and paint them in pieces and then re assemble them. Its much easier to fix small problems after they are painted.
Lair's decals get better each time i use them. wonder how much this would go for on ebay? dave












:twisted:
there are few human problems that cannot be solved by the use of high explosives!
