There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

I have no will power, so here is my latest early 1942 scheme WIP
Steve
You already did an amazing number Steve, so you deserve some rest. Now comes the always pleasant proces of uploading then........
Cheer,
Huub
No rest for the wicked old chap.
By the way I'm planning to butcher your readme for these ?

Here is an early wip of my French 1939/40 scheme. This will complete my French collection (for now) once done.
Steve
As Steve most probably won't post appetisers here anymore, I will post a few
Still much to do as I will replace what I have borrowed from Green Hornet..... That is paint and some weathering.....
There are several pictures which show that the white of the invasion stripes was removed on the upper surfaces from these attack aircraft. Most likely because the flew low and the white made them easy to spot. And not only for their colleagues. The only picture from the "Joker" I know, shows the white of the stripes on top of the fuselage is almost gone. Although I don't have any evidence I think this was also done on the wings.
Cheers,
Huub

Steve, I really like teh Joker's weathered and and faded out looks. Great stuff!!!![]()
Dear Uncle Milton,
Steve and I go back together for a long time, so I can imagine you sometimes get confused..... but I'm Huub doing the badly weathered things and Steve is the one who can produce 4 repaints in a single day..... So the Vichy DB7 with the yellow cowlings is Steve's and I'm the "joker"....
Cheers,
Huub
