What a pity with the decals, but that doesn't impact the overall good impression. I like the camo on the fuselage. How did you do that? Airbrush or (h)airbrush?

A short haired brush did the trick, Frank. First I applied in small dots the green over the light blue and after drying the light blue over the green. But when you look closely you can see that the layers of paint are "piled up". I had too learn back then to work with thinned paint when using this technique. Instead of a hairbrush I nowadays often use tiny pieces of sponge, or Q-tips, or a combination of all these "tools".

The decals were old and there was nothing I could do about the silversing on the wing decals, alas....
