What a camo, Clint! What a camo! I went back to page 1. Thank you for posting the profiles! Very useful. Very helpful. I thought you might be in a spot of trouble by painting over the decals but I am so glad to be wrong! The overspray effect works. I do also agree with Kari that the first color coats were absolute perfection at scale. Wow, did you gift the Norns something special this year???

Excellent! Just follow your references and don't worry if it looks strange now. This is always the awkward phase for Luftwaffe field camo patterns. The markings will tie everything together very nicely.

Bruce thank you! I agree the airbrushing is going extremely well. I'm sold on Mr. Color leveling thinner it's going to be my go to from now on that and a new nozzle and needle for the airbrush was enough to achieve a nice smooth finish.

Mr. Eaton. Technically it did get graffitied, when the day fighters got pressed into the night fighting roll the ground crew just sprayed over any bright markings like the crosses.

Mr. Kim. Thank you so much. I really appreciate your input. I got the decals on but even the way it looks in the above photos doesn't seem awkward to me. I've got a lot of books on night fighters, mostly Bf 110s, I've seen all types of strange field camos.
