Does naybody know the colour of the Uniforms the britsh pilots wore?

Holger Kranich
I´d say olive drab...

Dirk Heyer
Hi Duncan,
the standard colour was blue grey. White was also common meanwhile the Battle of Britain. And Khaki was the colour in Mediterranean theatre and under tropical condition.
Maybe this pictures will help:

I think my Airbrush skil are getting better.

Holger Kranich
Despite the masking, it is fun, isnt it?

Mike Kryza
Interesting - I'm looking forward...🙂

Duncan Cook 著者
Indeed. BUt no brushing today, Need to oder a new nozzle.

Holger Kranich
too big?

Duncan Cook 著者
No, As i striped my Airbrush down and tried to reaseble it, I tightened it to much and the thread broke. I think it's better because the new Nozzle has a much higher qualaty.

When your airbrush starts acting either you buy a new one or spareparts. My devillbis double action has been with me for 20 years. I bought then all the spare parts i need. Invest into an expensive one. As we say........expensive is cheap. I just got a new rubber tube to connect with my compressor. It is fine. Get a double action Duncan.
