maybe paint the thing yellow and only print the green?

PR19_Kit

It will be mostly yellow anyway, but the Battenberg stripes on UK ambulances are a different yellow to the main yellow. I have the main yellow, but can't find a spray can for the stripe yellow, thus the idea for doing it all in decals. :(

Sounds like a striking scheme, be worth the waiting to see how it looks

I can show you, I had to do a 1/72 drawing of the scheme to figure out how to draw up the decals.  ;D



It's a real pleasure building a kit that needs almost NO PSR at all.  :thumbsup: ;D This one needed a slight smear along the bottom of the tank and round the intake, but apart from that it fitted well nigh perfectly.

Surely an amblaince would have longer wings...

;)

- 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.

Gorgeous scheme  :wub:

It might not go as fast then.  ;)

That is a most interesting paint job.     And what else could the registration letters be?

Flashing Blue lights?


Of course, the parts even come in the kit.  ;D ;)

Well, they may not flash, but they will be on the model.

NARSES2

I'm still trying to get my head around sirens ? At top speed they'll be heard by people it overflew ages ago, I assume ? Although physics was never my best subject at school.......got my "O" Level though  :angel:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Hobbes

yes, at top speed (or any speed above Mach 1) the siren sound will arrive at the same time as the sonic boom.

PR19_Kit

They'll still be able to see the blue lights flashing in advance though.  ;)

Even a Lightning's not THAT fast!
