Hi all

Here's my German Marines Osprey, based on assault ship "Salamander 2", during an exercise in Norway back in 2012. Colours are as being used by German Navy, but in my own "German Marines" mix: RAL5008, RAL7012, RAL7023, markings for the fictitious 8th German Navy Airwing, permanently attached to the German Marine Corps. As I love miniguns, I could't stand to put one on the loading ramp...









Enjoy!

That is good. Looks mean in that camouflage  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I like that, especially the Minigun sting in the tail.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Perfect. One of the nicest looking Osprey yet ! Love that camo ! The minigun is a nice touch. Much better than that wimpy 7.62 mm

Like it.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

It does look good camouflaged, I did something like that some years ago with one of mine, still trying to find some suitable decals for it though -

If I'm not building models, I'm out riding my dirtbike

Hi kitnut617

Why don't you look for Belgian markings as used on the Sea King? The Belgians used SEA camo on some of their aircrafts, and this one would suit the Belgian paras perfectly ;D

I was thinking along similar lines, but New Zealand as they used the same camo too. Ride for the NZSAS?

Heck, why not Viet Nam era USAF decals?

But if that's a "no", then I 2nd Mossie's idea for RNZAF
"Mind that bus." "What bus?" *SPLAT!*
