    Should be finishing off a 1:48 Fouga shortly, hard kit to finish, lot of work.
    Have a few projects in hand, including 2 surfboards.

    Anyway, looking down the road, thinking of making a ' What if ' C-130J with Irish markings (maybe this should be in Walter Mitty)

    What would people like to see?
    Five options spring to mind to my mind

    1: NATO low viz standard paint job with modified (greyed out) WWII Irish Low viz (2 tone) decals

    2: Flat Green as per AW 139 with standard roundels etc.

    3: 2 tone blue as per CASA 235 with standard roundels etc.

    4: 2 tone grey as per IAC Pilatus/USCG or Grey/white

    5: US European II/Venezuelan/Aussie 2 or 3 tone cammo job.

    Aer Chorps na hEireann/Irish Air Corps taken for granted, tail flash (probably a harp as per Gulfstream) etc, perhaps a UN badge also.

    Other suggestions welcome, think of this as a straw poll.
