Country:  | And here is another shot, showing the nacelle intake in the fuselage colour.
....and my apologies I did not credit the the other He162 photo it is from the same source as the one below.

Country:  | I believe 1 of the 2 162 they have in the National Aviation Museum in Ottawa is still in it's original paint but it seems their image bank is down

Country:  | Great pic again Wayne! I have a colour profile of an He 162 with the arrow n red, the shield in orange-yellow with red trim, and an orange-red intake ring. How accurate that is I couldn't say, though...
Very disappointing not to be able to trust my 'trusted refernces' anymore, would love to know what information they based that comment about the intake rings on... | |

New details are coming to light and altering past perceptions...and ideas about markings and camo.
Not to mention what we learn here from each other about many different things...

Country: | Hey guys just finished my Korean Corsair tonight. Its the Italeri 1/72 scale
F4U-4B and took some time to finish. Cant see with the canopy fixed but I picked out all the dials and made good use of the decent cockpit supplied. Tried a few things including a clear coat for seal and decals and also decal softner. Nothing revolutionary but new for me.
Now I see close ups of the model and theres a fair few mistakes
Cheers

Country: |  Mistake
Alex
Only mistake that's instantly obvious is the engine is too shiny. One flight and everything facing you on a radial is either blue (heat) or grey (crap).
Even so the painting and build are first class | |
