Very nice Dora Mikey. You are right to go with Yellow 15. Tamiya is always drunk when it comes to decal and paint schemes. Upper wing crosses should be white though. I did this same scheme with the Eduard 190 kit awhile back, and really found it appealing. I went with the green/sky colored fuselage sides, though, just cause Eagle Cals said too

Cheers nathan. I decided to go with black because thats what was in my airbrush at the time, also theres no photos of the wings, so theres no evidence that im wrong lol.
I went with the paint scheme i did because after finding a dozen different aircraft with a dozen different schemes i decided that one was easiest.
This one has no decals on it, I did all the markings with montex masks. I was a little disappointed that they didnt supply the work number thats on the tail, but oh well. The yellow 15 was really my only real concession to accuracy on this kit. It was intended to be a shake and bake to help me get my mojo back.

Looks like you did get it back Mikey. Great work with the Masks. Most Montex sets only include the major markings, never any stencil or other data such as work Num, which is a bummer I think.

Sweet Dora . I have the same kit in the stash....perhaps someday.
