You beat me to it, its not money but good research, we had some good original photo’s showing all the detail required, Arco did the rest and as you can see the end result is excellant

Fluffy, I enjoyed the detective work of filling in a few gaps and going the extra mile, but without the wartime photographs you supplied and some from my own sources it would have been a different story. There is a well known “Camouflage and markings” publication that illustrates the chosen machine and the details are substantially wrong. Also a well known painting has several inaccuracies. A photograph of the aircraft at the time cannot be argued with, even by “experts”. 🙂
