A couple of new recolors for today:

1) recolors of the (previously available) Aero Asahi McDonnnell Douglas MD-902 (Notar) Explorer into 2 Philippine private owner liveries. Added an optional tubular tail boom since it's easy enough, wondered why the designer went with a boxy version. Cut the boxy version up to where the left side rails? begin, then round the square opening for a snug fit of the new boom tube.

2) recolors of the Toyota Singapore HiLux pickup and Mitsubishi Japan Triton/Strada pickup into Philippine Police liveries. Strictly speaking the Triton recolor is of the previous generation, but still looks the part.

The Mitsubishi Japan papercraft cars were archived by the Wayback Machine, but the Toyota Singapore papercraft cars have completely disappeared. It's a shame since their short-lived interactive website allowed recoloring the cars with different colors and patterns like dots, hearts, stars and even leopard spots.

As usual, this will be available pending moderator approval.

A new resource I found that's as useful as the Internet Movie Car Database is British Pathe, which has 2-minute video clips from the 1890s to 1970s archived (including Reuters footage). I found enough from just Philippine clips to recolor a new DC-3, Bedford S type truck and Stinson L-5 (with help from Leif E.) Expect these new recolors sometime in the future.
