More preview pictures of the FG-1D VMF-115 with the white painted area forward of the cockpit. Wonder why they did this during restoration?
Great job on capturing the glossy sea blue and the insignia blue, but the gray/white anti-glare panel is incorrect. The anti-glare panel was the same shade of blue as the glossy sea blue, but was a matte finish instead of a high gloss finish. When the paint was factory fresh, the anti-glare panel was quite visible. As the paint weathered, the anti-glare panel gained a slight gloss and the glossy sea blue dulled to a medium gloss and that made the anti-glare panel almost disappear in photographs.
