Back at the workbench after some weeks of teleportation in Real-World. Used the time to consider some aspects of the build, and decided to follow Pellsons advice. So now the AS 35XD has reverted to a more normal fin. I've started on the paint job. The plane will get the SM67 blank (Standard Paint 67 Gloss) - with a twist  ;)

My build is meant to represent a SF-35 from the Karup AB based ESK 724 on detachment to Trømsø, Norway, as part of the february 1986 NATO winter exercise "Anchor Express".

In my whif-world the SF-35s were based alongside the Harriers of No. 1 Sqdn RAF, and the ESK 724 was inspired by the white distemper winter camouflage, and followed suit.

In real-world the Flyvevåbnet never used white distemper on its planes, as the danish winters are more grey than white.

Certainly suits that scheme  :thumbsup:  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.
