Great choice in colors  :wub:  Love the detail work you did on the drop tank too!

I have to say, the white scheme on the box makes me think that it might be intriguing to see a Rafale with the old souris-style intakes... or maybe newer Diverterless Supersonics...

The Peruvian roundels look really good on that meatbox.....

Costa Rica (voted for), Dominican Republic or Philippines!  :thumbsup:

How did you paint this?  :bow:

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Well based on the lovely colour scheme, I'd say Kenya was the most appropriate.  :thumbsup:

Damn! :-\

I was hoping to see the WW2 Italian markings from the Bf-109 that inspired the colour scheme, including "postage stamp" flags on the fuselage. ;D

If you go the New Zealand markings, make sure you get the kiwis facing forwards, with their feet in toward the fuselage. ;)

I've voted: Bulgaria (Can you do a "postage stamp" fuselage markings, like the Italian ones? :P )

Kenya or Zambia, not enough Afrikaner aircraft, and I know Kenya was a British Colony, that's where Roger Whittaker was born. I'm a fan, what can I say :P If you chose Kenya, you could have it be flown by Flight Lieutenant Rodger Whittaker :P

Cracking camo. :thumbsup:  Domincan for me, love those cross-hair roundels and the camo reminds me of the that carried by their Vampires.
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.
