Very rarely do these types of paint jobs spin my wheels. I guess there is a market out there somewhere for them though.

The artist must've graduated from my old high school - The Piedmont Pirates!

Re: Greek A-7E, Mount Olympus (just a neat scheme)

Yeah, I'd skip this one. The paint job just doesn't do anything for me. But, I'd go for a Greek bird in the operational scheme in a heartbeat (as well as a Royal Thai Navy one).

Re: Greek A-7E, Mount Olympus (just a neat scheme)

I'm just so sick of Tiger schemes I refuse to buy them. There's WAY too many out there. (plus, it's all the manufacturers ever make--they'll make a dozen Tigers, but not a single low-vis) (and most of those Tiger schemes are painted using temporary paint that doesn't even last a week---as opposed to a low-vis scheme that's used for years)

They were the "Rage" of the NATO's International Air Tattoo in Europe back in the day, and I know several IPMS modelers who are crazy with those schemes!
