The Wooksta!

The nacelles are masked on the Spanish ones, as is the nose, although the scalloped area still needs doing.  I'll try making a paper template using a spare fuselage.

Started decalling the grey and black KG 200 one only for some of the decals, Revell, to disintegrate when dipped in water.  I have never had that issue with Revell decals.  The codes  I'm using RAF letters as I don't have the relevant Luftwaffe ones, but they're close enough and I may use thinned paint over the top to hide it.  I will be doing that on the wing crosses.

The green Condor is partially decalled.  The National markings are on, along with the overpainted radio codes and the unit badge of it's former user, KG40.  They had a thin wash of 83 over the top, applied by KG200 when they acquired it.
The radio codes and older crosses were nicked from the Trumpeter Condor.  It was only later that I acquired the KG 40 markings, ironically from the military transport kit, and that had the correct codes.  I mean, the codes that are on are barely visible and will have KG 200 codes over the top.

I need to redo the Air Min number, as I wasn't happy with the ones I've done.  I'll do that tomorrow and crack on with the decalling of this and the grey one at the weekend.
