The low viz markings have their own appeal to me...

I do like those colors! Not the usual day fighter temperate schemes… :hmm: No they're not are they? The Mediterranean theatre especially seems a real hotch-potch of different schemes - most of it non-standard, that's why I'm enjoying this sheet so much. And you will find that instead of squadron co...

It has been quite physical to do much of the work all day long. But I do get to see all kinds of neat stuff and see what is really out ther...
