Ok, I had finished the paint work, and soon you'll be able to honorate British pilots (and Joe his own father), in virtual skyes.
You'll see a silver Cub, with some shiny applied, to make it look like new just when it was out the fabric. When you look at the photos of NC1776, the shiny is gone, but I am sure it was there when she was "born", and that was my "artistic" choice. Purist will not like it that, but all opinions are welcome.
The letterings were copied from the original photos and transformed to fit the paint. That was, may be, the biggest challenge. The interior are silver\grey, like joe adviced. And the happy chaps have RAF uniforms.
It's the history what makes this plane an interesting subject, I hope you'll like it!
