    I have decals coming for this plane but I've run into a problem. I thought the fuselage was white but I have seen it done in a blue-gray color. Anyone know which is correct?

    This is what they have at the Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome.

    Peter, do you have a shot of whatever has the Bavarian tail paint scheme behind the rabbit plane?

    I wonder if the rabbit is called Snow White

    Check out the Wingnut kit on the DVII, this was the color scheme on one of them. That's where the elves got my details from, they are notoriously accurate . . . Wingnut, not the elves . . .

    Where did you source the decals? I've had my eye on this plane for a long time!
    I laugh in the face of danger - then I hide until it goes away!

    That is awesome, thanks.

    I’d love to get decals for the Bavarian bird. Although I think it would be next to impossible to put on correctly!

    Great suggestion to refer to the Wingnuts page. I have used them several times and the colors always come out fantastic. They suggest Tamiya XF66 Light Grey or Humbrol 87 Steel Grey Mat.


    Here's to them what are like us. Damn few and they're all dead.

    I think someone here has done it; check the paint galleries.
