JP or Strikey ?

Here is my progress with the Fly 1/48 Strikemaster. Not exactly the best kit I have ever attempted mind. It has resin for the detail parts and injection plastic for the main airframe parts. Just need to decide on a scheme, New Zealand is top at the moment !!

I've seen a few red and white JPs so definitely the Kiwi IMHO.

Well, you've pit the tip tanks on already so I'd tend to agree....Kiwi Strikey.

JPs don't look right with them on imo....

Some T.5's had tip tanks, but I will do mine as a New Zealand machine.

I'd ask the Danes ;)

Never seen 1/4 scale JP, a Kiwi machine would be nice.

Yea, they just don't look right....


Old Zealand (Zeeland) is, I believe, part of the Netherlands.

I've read some where on tinternet, that the Strikemaster decals are all warbirds in private hands. I also need aftermarket roundels for the NZ kite as the kit decals are incorrect.

Got some paint on, it was pain in the tail turret, as I had to use web pics for the scheme as the box pic is to small. Great scheme though !
