All wonderful!!!! In my youth I built the last RAF machine from a 1/48th kit. I still have spare decals in my collection, and I might just have to build another!

It appears I had an accident with red paint thirty-five or so years ago! :-red No problem though, I'll use the roundels and fin flash and figure out the rest of the markings later.

Santynus,

I have to agree with you on the serial color. It appears that both black and white (or very light grey or sky) were used on the Thunderbolt IIs in the Pacific. The airplane restored at Hendon has them in white, but I don't know exactly how accurate the markings are. I still think I have a couple of good photos around here that might be of some help. I'll keep looking. I do have a photo of several razorback Thunderbolt Is in the SE Asia scheme and their serials are black.

"big box of remains" this sounds so good :-clap :-clap :-clap, that I now officially proclaim ( :-smey) that I am adopting the same name for a very small beginner's box of similar stuff. :) :-wave

 :) :) :) I have a box of decals and boxes of parts and pieces of kits I built as a kid. I've been building models since around 1965 so there is a pretty large amount of remains to dig through. The extra stuff certainly comes in handy, though!!!!

Letipapa,

Here are two of my most treasured artifacts from my boxes of spares:

Italian P47 remake


The B-25 is from the Doolittle Raid Hornet aircraft carrier (the first ship model I built) and the vertical fin is from my first-ever aircraft kit, the old Revell B-24. Apparently I felt that I had to use ALL the decals on the sheet! :-eek I keep both of these parts at my modeling desk and have for many years. I still remember the fun I had building both of those kits and the satisfaction of completing them. I often look up at them and remember those times as a kid!

Sorry I hijacked this thread, Santynus-I often don't know when to stop talking!  :-blah :-blah :-blah
