Didn't need 'em. We had... BRISTOL FREIGHTERS!!!   ^_^

But seriously folks, the RCAF was the first in the world to have jet transports, the DH Comet.

Ollie, I think I am going to have to drag out my Osprey now too!

Those RCAF colours & markings books arrived and I want to do up the CV-122 in either "Canada 1" Green/Grey/grey (hercs, Buffalo)  or 2-tone Green (Griffon).

The yellow glass is ugly, and since I won;t be doing much to the 'pit, I reckon a coat of clear blue should turn it a decent greenish colour.

Wow Ginge! i enjoy your fake work! How did you do that ? With Photoshop? How is it possible to repaint a real photo without touching the lights and shadows? That's very interresting me!!



And for Ollie, very good job, comme d'habitude!!

Good job, but it should it not be silver and red with great big full colour maple leafs and flags and F-86 tanks.  Now there is an idea...

I started on the 48th one tonight. I forsee some 36-grit sandpaper and large amounts of putty!!

Actually, I am tempted to hold off now, and use it as a test bed for a rivetting tool & panel scriber. Lots of wide open styrene on that italeri kit!
