Since you mentioned the other Shorts Taco paints, some have been done as the regular "black" trainers as well. Nice surprise on the SEA camo.

Yes, by the time you're looking at the Shorts there's all sorts of different paint choices...but they're all just more 'fakes' like the RAF Spitfire one.

The VA-122 in its early stages [also a what-if, of course]....

Edit....
I'm doing this ver to again be certain no-one's done it before [like the RAF one]....so I'm imitating a Corsair's paintwork layout.
Here's it coming along...

Edit again....
Kinda strange but quirky....

Nearly done.

Mr. Jafo, considering the very high quality of your paints, can I ask you a further painting request ? ( hoping to not bother you off course !:encouragement:)

Should be easy enough...;)
 
Ok, very well! ( After this paint I'll have to pay a good dinner because a simply Thank you will not be enaugh !!!:encouragement:)
 
Just like to say my Dad was at Moody in WW2 under the Arnold scheme. They must have taught him well over there because he became an Instructor for about a year before going back to the UK.
 
The weather turned nasty at YMML while I was doing this one....
...but in the rain....

I'll need to research its 'cn', etc so I can upload...;)

Edit....and fix that spinner...hadn't noticed.
 
Here's the 'before and after'....
The original clean-ish '32', and the dirty/faded '49'

I'll upload the latter presently [found its CN] ...;)

Very Nice Paints for Piglet's Excellent Tucano!

Jafo...Thanks. A reinstall of the A-29 and I wonder why I buy? Piglet did some excellent work. A picture of me on final to 04 at KMSP with the Mall of America in the background.

P.S. It was getting on toward evening. Like we used to say at Northwest Airlines..."It's cold and it's dark, but it's ours!"

Cool screenshot...;)
Yes, Tim's stuff is always great...I'd also extensively repainted for his A12A Avenger II ...although that was a 'what-if' aircraft itself so I kinda had a free hand with painting it...;)

Thank you, Thank you,
YMML? I think I'll have some problem to pay you a dinner if you live there! My location is LIME ( usually
Runway 12/30).
 
Yep...YMML is just 'up the road a bit'....I spent a lot of time living under the East-West runway approach.

FAB-5949 - cn: 31400084 - Weathered, Faded and Dirty. Forca Aerea Brasileira 2010 has been uploaded here...;)

Makes up for that comparatively clean one....

Faded enough to work as winter camo...;)

Am away from the computer for a few days...so the next ones uploaded will be after then...;)
 
With all the shark mouth versions out there I figured I'd go one better.....
Here's a dragon on the go....not too bad when the nostrils end up as exhausts...;)
