Hi....
once again I come begging help.

I would be most grateful for any camo/paint guides from the instruction pages of any Ar234 kit in any scale. Revell or Dragon as examples.

Many thanks in advance.

I'm not idle... :-) I'm busy with some new colour profiles.
Just when Holdfast thought it was safe to think of Luft 46 in general and a Ta183 or...how many is it now???....3 or 4?...in particular

Cheers and again many thanks
Peter

Hi Peter

Great to know some fresh profiles are brewwing! I can scan you the official Ar 234 painting guide tonight if no-one does one before.

All the best

Many many thanks Rowan
Yes you provided me with the same but that was before I "left" and my computer was cleaned.
So I need it again.

Brewing?....two bags no less

Again I'm in your debt.

Many thanks again

Neat - if I sent it before, it probably means the scan is still on my system somewhere... my computer is as cluttered as my workroom! :-)

All the best

Hi Peter,
Ta 183 is coming on, slowly, I cut out the wing tip nav lights but they are quite big and I have faild to find anything suitable to re-do the glass
I'm taking it, as is to the Milton Keynes show on the 5th Feb, along with the profile book you sent me. That'll look good along side Harri's (JetProvost) nose art.
Have sort of determined to paint the Ta 183 with a bare metal fuselage with sexy camo wings, with a blue nose and reich defense bands around the tail Comments please

Hi Mal
...sounds great...can't wait to see it.

And if its up to your usual standard it'll be a doozy.
I think the bare metal fuselage with the camo wings will look lovely....any mastik on some of the fuselage joints?

This is going to be a real treat. And I'm very happy you've finally succumbed to the mystical lure of Luft 46
;)

Cheers
Peter
