| David Duckett | Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang | Build | 29-Jun-10 04:52 |  | | Views : 1469 | | From the instructions: " Entire upper surface a camouflage combination of light and dark greens mixed with light and dark blues. The upper surface camouflage colors blend into the bottom surface colors which is a combination of pale blue and light gray...spinner is light blue". Drawing on thevast knowledge of our members savvy in such matters, does anyone have an actual reference to such colors actually being used? I know a red spinner is correct for the Mediterranean theater but where was blue used? Are there any references for the markings used on USAF Mustangs during the Korean War? And finally, were any of the bubble top Mustangs in British camo? Thanks. |
