Man what fun!
Got ModelMasters colors, strictly enamels and didn't have to worry about tip drying out and sputtering
Navy Agressor Grey FS36251, Light Sea Grey FS36307 and Medium Grey FS35237
By the numbers.
Made a couple of misteps and will have to clean up a spot or two but not bad for first coverage.
James, the ref shots you sent me the mounting was black with some sort of anti rusting stuff around weld joints. Was this some sort of primer for another coat of paint that was coming later?

Just the big yellow can of enamel thinner. Works great.

Wish to ask for forgiveness from our CFB Cold Lake brothers. I really wanted to do the correct A/C number on this but didn't have the decals for it. I thought I read that multiple S/N could be done but that only applied to the USAF birds.
Oddly enough A/C 736 was included in the decals but in the wrong colors, guessing the A/C was at another museum before being stuck up on the pole there and giving the low visibility paint scheme.
Here we go.
Now I gotta figure out how to make that base look like a concrete pad with some grass around it some.

Thanks Ron, yeah that's a future project when I get the nerve.
Think that would work Mats, thanks! What should I use to demark between the ground work and the base? Maybe some styrene stock?
Actually not a no brainer for me. The ground work I did for the Korean Sherman has pulled up from the base, don't know what I've done to make you think I know what i'm doing but thanks Paul
