One thing you have to look out for in old WW II B&W pictures is if it was othochromatic or panchromatic film..the ortho wasn't as sensitive to red...thus things like roundels would "reverse" their appearances...with blue looking lighter than red! Panchromatic is what is currently the norm, but not all shots in WW II are panchromatic! If you can see the roundel...it makes it a little easier to tell..the red dot should be lighter if it was panchromatic.
And now we end todays' photgraphic history lesson....Written exam to follow... B)

Righteous ! Righteous !

Cool, man....way cool !

See how easy what-iffery is ? Everybody should be doing it ! And that's what them cheapo kits are so good at, being slapped together ! And like Baz sez ( whay don't you listen what the Baz sez ?* ) instead of all the filler, just weather the 'ell out of 'em !

And fin flashes are easy to remember, if you use the CDN flag priniple...the red always goes towards the front of the aircraft ! ;)

Beauty looking bird, btw. Aircraft always look so goos as part of the Fleet !

:wub:

And Radish, go RN, all the way !

More, Gary...give us more ! Oh, what I'd give to have a place to airbrush in my house :wacko:

Thanks guys. Digital images really cleaned her up. I was working to get it done quickly and I frigged the paint on the underside something horrible. Finerprints and such. Didn't wait for the paint to cure.


Hmmm, now for my next simple project....
Getting back into modeling

I think she looks marvellous mate, as if she was made to do just that!

Sea Defiant or Sea Thunderbolt next? :P
