Very nice. Looking good. Now we just need it upscaled to 1/35.

Nope, they are all in low-vis grey.

Yup now I see it was AH1W I was looking at. Would love the American forces to go back to their former glory in the aircraft markings/camouflage department. This lo-vis business always reminds me of stormtroopers in star wars.
