The design is based on the Mustang kept at the Israeli Airforce Museum today. Disruptive patterns for the period are too varied to provide a definitive scheme. The first pair of Mustangs to arrive in Israel were quickly assembled and rushed into service in Israel's first fighter squadron. They were ..

The "Mirage IIIC" was orignially finished in Bare Metal or painted Silver and was used effectively by France, South Africa and Israel. This mask set has been desinged to give the modeller an alternative to using decals.Care needs to be taken when using metal paints as the vinyl has a tendency to p..

The Bf109G was manufactured in three different factories in Germany for the Luftwaffe, each with a distinct style of camouflage that can often quite easily be identified with a little help from other distinguishing marks. Identifying which factory an aircraft stems from will help pick the correct ca..

This factory devised camouflage scheme using greys was relatively short lived. It was confined to early production models of the Me 262 A-1a including most of the early prototypes. Aircraft with serial numbers close to 110 were probably painted in greys. See our ME 262 Late mask, TNM-M027.This set..
