Love it! Is the "Hell's Angels" Pin-Up your own addition or is it real?

Great job, mate! I would only ditch the fuel tank, as they are NEVER used in combat!

Yes, this is the Italeri offering. The pin-up decal was actually included on the sheet. I went straight OOB for this project, so what you see is what is included for this scheme. The only decal modification I made was to replace the decal that was inside the boarding ladder door. I believe this one was supposed to be a lizard decal, but I just chuckled when I seen the expressionless yellow face and the quote "Have a day." For anyone that's ever been forward deployed, this was seemingly appropriate so I opted to go with that one instead. And Sebastijan, good info. I'm mostly a fan of centerline drop tanks, as I think they help sometimes beef up a model, or at least add a bit od symmetry down the middle. Fortunately, for all my ordnance, I drill out the pylons and the weapons with a micro drill, and run safety wire into the ordnance so that I can essentially "plug" the armament into the pylons at will. I started doing this after having some issues with ordnance and gear coming off when I'd ship commission builds. Now days, if it happens, you just pick it up, and quite frankly, plug it back in to whatever station you'd like.

Interestin', wonder what the story is behind the "Hell's Angels" pin-up as I've only seen it on the AVG Flying Tigers - 3rd Pursuit SQdrn Hells Angels before.
