The cylinder detail was printed from a Dumas plan. I usually make a scale propeller instead of what comes with the kit. Rather than using the supplied decals to represent the fuselage guns, I used round tooth pics....the same as I did for the wing guns.

This was my first attempt at this type of a paint scheme, but I was pleased with the results.

To apply the camouflage scheme I used regular paper patterns as shields. With the help of an extra set of hands holding the shields just above the surface, I was able to produce a softer edge while spraying the Testors FS 36251 Aggressor Gray. It looks blue in the pictures, but actually its a subdued gray paint scheme.

Before this picture was taken, the bottom of the plane was painted with Testors 1226 Flat Aircraft gray. This picture shows the top surface being sprayed with Testors FS 36118 Gunship Gray.
