Uncarina Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 I recently saw this mask set from Montex: Apologies for the blur-it’s a screenshot. Are there photos and reference information for the actual aircraft? Cheers, Tom Martinnfb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardcore Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 (edited) Yes, it was filmed in color by the allies after they found it belly landed. Mushroom publ. Late war Bf109s has a profile and very likely japo too. I bet you can find the clip on YouTube Edited January 18 by Hardcore Martinnfb and Uncarina 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.B. Andrus Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 Hi Tom Here are a few shots of the K-4 Hardcore may be referencing. I have no shots of the starboard side. HTH, Damian Troy Molitor, D Bellis, Mark P and 4 others 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardcore Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 Strange that the profile is of the starboard side; I don't know of any pics showing that. Maybe mhaldimann2 on Flickr got any Martinnfb and Uncarina 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Tom Unless someone has some high quality color pics of this aircraft, I’d be bit skeptical of the primer red tail section and the weird cowling paint work.

Especially when there's a good chance that the top portion of the vertical fin and rudder are wooden. Uncarina, Troy Molitor and John1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martinnfb Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 (edited) Damian and Hardcore gave you all you guys need . There is no reason to elaborate on that sci-fi that Montex often presents in its product.

It is same, but the youtube clip is of two different a/c. #8 is shown in the second half. Uncarina 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HTH, Damian In the second photo I see what *might* be an RLM81 band on the nose, perhaps covering yellow. Cheers, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
