T-28 Trojan, SAAF "what-if" colours - Murph's Models

[Paper John]

Well done with paint and build Niki...

One could almost imagine this standing on the apron at the Central Flying School Dunnottar....pity it was never flown by the SAAF. At a glance it is easy to mistake it for a SAAF Harvard of the times. From what I can see you seem to have got the tricky Dayglo Orange colour just about right. If I remember correctly you were the inspiration for Air Dave's SAAF Harvard recolour, and did a build of it?

Thanks for the words. I didn't do the repaint though, IIRC it was John Bowden.

Correct, I asked him, he responded in the positive. Also a nice build.
