I really like the black you've done. I'm hoping to achieve the same black as yours on the P-61 Black Widow.

Black is a very hard color to paint and weather right but you got it perfectly!
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

Thanks.
Now I need to look for a Coastal Command, a desert fighter, and an Aussie

Outstanding, John. Just a fantastic job on both build and finish. Many shy away from a black scheme.
Underrated, I'd say - and I still have an unfinished Bf 110 nightfighter on my shelf of doom.

Personally I prefer the Beau in the Desert camo or the jungle camo worn by the Aussies in the South Pacific.

Stik I've got a desert camo 1/72_Hasegawa in the display. Its one of my older builds from the 90's. No weathering. Looks like it just came out of the paint shop
