Wow!!! That's unusual...
Is it Cruella DeVille's Plane??? or have I developed spots before the eyes???
Nicely done but must have driven you DOTTY doing it😄 decals or paint???

Yes it's a paintjop. No decals where used on the whole airplain. It was funny, but white over blue color, that will give you hell (lol).

That is awesome! I have photo of this thing going to land, if I wouldn't see it, couldn't believe that this is a real thing 😄

Luis Ferrer
I love the the color scheme, Is that a true pattern or your own.

Martin, that makes your work even more impressive, well done!!!
When I paint a light colour over a dark coloured plastic or other, I always use a white primer...
And I'm not trying to teach Grandma how to suck eggs, just saying, that's all 👍😄

Many aircraft were painted in similar (and even more fantastic and colorful) schemes: vintagewings.ca/Vint..ka-Dot-Warriors.aspx

I read that article a few days ago, and was wondering if somebody had done a model based off one of those schemes.. And i must say, you did an excellent job 🙂

Luis Ferrer
Thks for the info, i think you did an excellent job.

Nice looking Assembly ship. The americans have the LINDE Ersatzkaffee packaging cloned for this paint job: [img1]
