Morning lads,
I might be needing these sometime soon, say in a month or two. I want to make a 109 into a two seater with Voss' markings and think a rear gunner might look nice, but he'll need a gun.
Also, I've bought a 1/72 mig 21 and may dress it up in some wild camo scheme. I seem to to recall some Desert Storm planes having a Cher painting on the fuselage. Were these ever made and sold as model decals?
Any help gratefully accepted.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Hi fellows,
One of my club members is coming to the party re the Parabellum, but I'm still in the market for a Cher decal. I may have to Hyperscale this request as it's pretty specialized.
Thanks

Hi all,
The 1/72 Parabellum arrived in today's post and by gum isn't it tiny!? It may need a little trimming into shape here and there before painting, though. I'll give it a coat of darkish grey drybrushed with pencil lead and a brown stock and handle.
The rear gunner wil go behind the pilot of my old 1/72 Hasegawa 109 and I've already drilled out a hole where the antenna mast and antenna loop used to be. Got to enlarge the hole a little.
The fuselage of the 109 will be wooden and maybe the wings purple and green a la WW1 plane if I can't find anyone in my club willing to give me some lozenge decals for free.
