What do you think?

DayGlo stripes across the tip tanks? What markings?





A bit of touching up on the tail pipes :D

As for markings nothing to bright.

If you are going to all the trouble of painting that kind of camo Day Glo would ruin the whole effect.

The reason it is that camoflage is it is so quick to do, plus it covers a multitude of sins :rolleyes:

Looking good but, Crikey man, I'm going to lose track of your project if you spread it over multiple threads like this!   :o

My vote would be no on the day glo bands as well. This one is just screaming nightfighter!

Maybe those nice Albanian roundels?

I like what you have so far, picking complimentary markings is always tricky.

I could see deep yellow or even bright blue banding - in the same way as the USAF had 'rank bands' to denote a pilots place in the flight. But dayglo orange.... Hmmmm perhaps not.

Just my two penceworth - it's your model, go nutz !

I'm really fond of this model... you changed the good old CF-100 into a very good-looking aircraft (just love the pointed nose, swept tail...)
CF-105 markings would be cool (day glo or not) we can imagine your aircraft as a replacement for the big white delta  :wub:  
King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

Sorry about the arm  but the canopy is still wet!



One of my other What Ifs and another nightfighter.






Any thing I need to pick up on ( I can never spell "criticism") do not hesitate to tell me please.
