Thank you very very much, Carlos! I know there are nice 1:100 and bigger free DC-3 models out there, but Bruno's version has the cartoon-like purity that makes recoloring very easy.

And for the record I don't have Inkscape or anything that complex. I take a snapshot in Adobe Viewer after zooming to 200% to 400% to minimize aliasing, then do pixel editing in MSPaint if needed. Then the raster graphic gets pasted into MS Powerpoint where I use the 'set transparent' function to change the overall color to whatever I need (white or otherwise) - this only works for single color schemes, so I get help whenever I can.

To get camouflage schemes with small repeating patterns like US Woodland I use a tiled graphic swatch as background for the transparent color, which doesn't work for WW2 whole aircraft schemes.

Back to MS Powerpoint to add the vector text, lines and shapes and then finishing off with downloaded PNG logos, emblems and roundels. It's amazing how Zen this process can get, otherwise I wouldn't enjoy it that much. More frustrating to do internet photo searches!

Quick work on something that takes up time while we're still dealing with high flood waters after Harvey back in Texas

Dear Christopher, hope you and family are fine.
The news have been very hard to digest.
Best wishes in your reconstruction!

Seconded, to all struggling to recover from Harvey.

Reggianes are still in the process of testing and repairs (and some time there will be still), so in order you do not get bored and have something to build, I have prepared for you another model that has been far easier for me (only recolor and adding chassis, details etc .). But I think you'll like it the same way. It is the Blackburn Skua, the S.Lt Fraser-Harris machine, which on 10th April 1940 put the most serious hit to the German cruiser Königsberg and greatly contributed to its sinking.
