Tony C Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Certainly hope that mine comes out that well! Similarly I like the blue but is it 'artistic license' or based on fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesHatch Posted October 30, 2014 Author Share Posted October 30, 2014 Certainly hope that mine comes out that well! Similarly I like the blue but is it 'artistic license' or based on fact. There is no evidence to say it was red. We know there was a camo infill beforehand, but inspection of the b/w photos doesn't prove/disprove the red or blue theory. It's possible it was painted blue to tie in with the blue on other parts of the airframe. The real fact is.....no one knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I was aware that there was some debate over whether or not the mouth was red or camo but have never seen mention off, nor considered blue.

Maurice Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Hi Jim, fantastic model. Are the seat harnesses included in the kit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesHatch Posted November 1, 2014 Author Share Posted November 1, 2014 Hi Maurice, Yes those are the kit parts. They are pretty good, but you could make them better by thinning them and sticking spare PE buckles on them. The next one I build will have HGW belts.
