Thanks everybody!

The T-38 (in blue "Grape" scheme) has been repainted in black...I was not happy with the paint job at all. The F5-F..I like!

Both sides are the same. The top, corner panel (little triangle, just in front of windscreen) has a glare on the right side, making it look like the same color as the rest.

Ran into some snags with the decals!

...but, they are finally done...seems like it took forever!
The "Muschi" (wonder if that's referring to his "kitty cat"?!!!) decal was not on the sheet...I had to paint it on decal sheet. The Peddinghaus decals (not recommended BTW) is printed on a full decal sheet, requiring that you cut out each decal. I only used the "Yellow 12" specific decals from that sheet, the rest are Hasegawa and Airfix.
Decals for "Yellow 1" were pieced from the spares box.

Wait a minute...you'll have us believing that you hand-painted that German "phrase" onto decal paper THEN applied it? :what:
In 1/72nd scale? :yikes:

Yup...I would have painted it directly on the model, but I really didn't want to have to strip and repaint the area, in case I messed up.
