USN paint? Aircraft type? Link? I have such trouble, using the search function in the Warbirds library. NC
 
It's been a busy time, the last few weeks, constantly on the road, but I still squeezed out a few paints, here's an update:

As always out-bloody-standing work Jan.
:applause:

FYI: One of the first Dutch squadrons that escaped the Japanese invasion re-located to Canberra and continued to work up on B25s.
These had been ordered and paid for before the invasions, so when some of George Kenney's(?) minions arrived to 'requisition' them the Dutch locked them away and placed armed guards on the hangers.
Their reasoning was very simple, their government had ordered and paid for the aircraft, the crews liked them, and no way would they 'exchange' them for the proffered A20s.
The USAAF detachment departed without the 25s, leaving a number of A20s standing around the dispersal area.
According to my Father who was temporarily stationed at Canberra for a few months, the Dutch pilots 'exercised' the A20s from time to time around the ACT, mostly at zero feet and mostly buzzing residences where young Aussie women lived!
 
Absolutely gorgeous repaints for the B-25J, Jankees. :applause:
Thanks a lot !!
I think its time to prepare my revised model for upload.
But no fear, there are no modifications with the repaint textures.

this will be the next one:

Absolutely gorgeous job, Jankees. I'm sure your attention to detail is just as high as it usually is, but I just love the shades of colour and lighting transitions on this one - really first rate job - well done,
:encouragement:
