Will be interested to see how you get on with this Mike When I were a lad I built the Frog kit. Normally it was a question of making things fit even if they didn't. Even back then when I had no concept of bad kits mine was bloomin' awful! It was a loss of innocence! ![]() I have the ICM SB-2 Spanish Civil War kit and approve of the markings you have chosen! ![]() |

ps That colour profile looks like overall sand which seems a tad unusual What do the instructions say? |

I can't remember what I said this morning Mike, have no chance of recalling something from last year! ![]() I see from that conversation ICM agree on the overall sand! Still seems odd but what do I know Will see if I can find some more evidence as the second profile has the same aircraft in green |
