I got in the DP Casper 'Bodenplatte' sheet in case it got the GB spot.

I decided rather that do 'Pip's' 190, I'd do this A-8 instead:



I may end up getting a Dora to use that scheme as well!

Painting has begun!

I have a couple of paintbrushes modified for the job.

I usually put on the mottle colour(s) and then stipple the base colour over the top.

If you look at my Ju88G you'll get some idea of how it turns out.

Brilliant work. Nice to see a wide range of colour schemes from all those taking part in the GB and winter camo is always nice.
