The colours are 'about right' middle stone is hard colour to source so had to improvise. The final effect looks to factory fresh however, more like the condition they were in when 1st commissioned into the RAF in the '60s. By the time they were in RNZAF service they were a bit more faded

When we got them they were somewhat less pristine, but some "spit and polish" did show minor improvement. |

A great effort! The removal of the "desert" RAF scheme at Woodbourne was quite a mission

It builds well, just needs the usual surface preparation...lots of wet& dry sanding with various grades of sandpaper (provided by Oneman Model  ) |

another commission under way...Definitely seems that One Man Model is improving the resolution of his 3D printing! This will be MCF in the last Mount Cook Livery, notice slight variation of air-frame paint: with grey painted wings & tail plane as opposed to aluminium wings & tailplane on DES.

a magnificent effort on both types. The desert scheme was certainly different to what the RNZAF had experienced before, and as stated above was a devil to remove!

. The result looks OK
