ORIGINAL: CorsairJock Yes, I will be printing them but not soon. Still flying season here, wait until November. I have seen several different color plates of Marine's Dream, and notice they are not all alike. One of them even has undergarments red (instead of more widely accepted white), but there are variations of national markings (one has wing underside emblem without bars) and application of 2 tone color scheme as well (some have underside of outer wings in same shade at top (blue gray), others have same shade as bottom (light gray)). YOU KNOW THESE planes were up dated in the field as authorized by defence department the red around the insignia for one.AND possibley a touch up on the nose art at the same time.I`m not sure but maybe the ground crew thought she needed to change her underware-- when they painted the outline on the insignia..I think a lot of these differences could be correct , It`s depending on the date of the picture taken(updates) I`ve seen photos of the same plane, taken at different times,.... 1 of the pics had 2 diamond tread tires ,the other 1(same plane) had 1 rib tread, and 1 diamond tread.I think best bet is to get the photo of the era your depicting ,and go that route(it`s your proof).I seen Dion offered to clean up the image too .HE`s welcome to do it I would just like him to put a copy in here as well, for anyone to use ..I`ll do the same .I`ll continue to work on this topic, but I`ll mix up the eras a bit to keep things intresting for every one..on the U-1 topic I`ve got some other art and photos that you may prefer even more.I myself prefer to be as different from the next guy, and be accurate too.Before I go further, I want to repair the images above the MARINES DREAM because I ,got, .NEW ,,,TECHNOLOGY , to PLAY with.. I`m sure every one can see the difference..EVERYBODY keep an EYE open and I`ll be adding here, as I have time..I`ve spread myself out a bit much..I need to install my retracts to show a fellow how I`m doing it so he can copy what I`ve done ,or improve on it(another thread, I`ve got going). It`s just that I`m going to start from scratch right from making the strut cover, so I can post pics. Again for whoever, wants to use ,or improve on my idea(more than 1 way to skin a cat)..If any one wants to share art that they have e mail me and we can do a good clean up and put it here too... nice to have these sort of things in 1 place .I`ve got countless hours searching all over for this stuff(eats up alot of time)...DAVE B.
