Cool ! I like the IRAF one, but I've gotta build mine as a real one, for our Chinese lab tech here at work.

Cheers !

No. Running around after a two and a half year old little boy, (I'm Mr Mum these days as the wife works) takes up 90% of my time. :o  :D

I'm usually up way past midnight doing these profiles and attempting to run my decal business. :P

I will be bringing out decals for these J-10A's pretty soon. I REEEEALY want to build one too, as I too have the kit......its all a matter of time..... :wacko:

Then there's the problem of which one??????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :wacko:  :wacko:  :wacko:  :dum:  :dum:  :dum:

Trouble is I deam-up these schemes, which sparks my imagination for more and more, then I'm left with the delema of which one(s) to model if I ever get time to do some. :cheers:

Cheers

Richard.

Count me in for a set of them, are you considering a Pakistani Air Force version in their F-16 style camo with low-vis markings as they are /were looking seriously at buying the J-10 (not sure if the new batch of F-16's will effect this or not).

It might be worthwile considering similar sets for the JH-7 Flying Leopard as the PLAAF are now using the MK2 version, so that could be done in Ground Attack camo.

You've done it again Richard. Brilliant designs, all of them are awsome, but I like the Chinese desert one best. But then I have a soft spot for desert schemes anyway.

I picked up a J10 the other week, so I've now got a few more ideas for it....Cool

Hi Geoff,

if I did do a Pakistani J-10 I'm afraid it wouldn't be in the F-16 style camo. I really can't stand that "F-16" style camo, too boring, it would have to be something more striking. :P

As for the JH-7 Flying Leopard, I still have to get my hands on one of those kits, once I do I'm sure to bring out some decals for it. I can just see a JH-7 in red-brown, green and sand camo, for Northern Australian ops! Then there's a dark grey-blue and .............................................. :wacko:

Cheers

Richard.

None that I know of. It'd be good if Trumpeter did one though!!!!!

After seeing the Mynamar MiG-29 in the Sept. issue of AFM, I'm inclined to say a J-10 would look most aesthetically appealing in that four-tone blue camo.
