All finished, but no rigging yet.

The whole aircraft has got a clear satin coat and the cowling and exhaust has a nice metal touch of Mr.Color Stainless that is well polished.

Nope, but I scanned the decals before I used them so, I can send you a jpeg.
You only need a steady hand and a brush and you've soon made yourself an own duck.

Sarge, I think I've got an old Matchbox Stringbag sheet somewhere you can have that has this scheme on.

I'd be very interested if you do have this sheet.....Please let me know and I'll see if I can come up with a satisfactory swap (You don't want any tanks at all do you?). 

All the best
