Finally time was spent applying the neutral grey to the Airacobra. Not much new on the P-63, though--just the anti-glare panel and walkways are painted there.

I scrounged about and found the decals I needed to mark this little Airacobra. Like the D.520, this will be weathered and completed in the new year.....

The Airacobra is complete, in markings from the 1941 Carolina Maneuvers "war games" before the U.S. entered WWII:

Now I MUST concentrate on the reason for this thread--the P-63.....I had almost forgotten it on my busy desk!

I've always wanted to do one of these with the war-games markings but lacked the 40th Squadron door decal. This I found in the Eduard Airacobra I bought recently and that was the "missing link". I'd also like to do a Grumman Wildcat in the Red Force markings. The Carolina Maneuvers was a joint-services war game in some aspects.
