I've changed my mind about three times now on how I want to paint this. I'm going to go with the US Navy "three-color" scheme.

Not doing the folded wings ?? I always do if its an option, mainly for the space saving and to add to my 'carrier deck' collection. That's definitely a Glossy Sea Blue !

I know what you mean by space-saving, Carlo! I usually don't build my airplanes with folded wings, though. I want them to look like they are about to leap into the air!

Complete - I'm generally happy with the colors, but the decals were a bit of a disappointment on this one. They were not precut, and it was difficult to get a clean edge. The colors also came out dull, and were incorrect for the "86" on the forward landing gear doors (should have been black - white-on-white doesn't work so well). Plus, I had problems with silvering. Good kit, though. Better luck next time.
