Model Fleet: Squiggles

"I never had any luck with that particular ("Wave Mirror" camouflage) scheme although I have seen it done and quite well. It is visually attractive on a model. I just never could get my airbrush dialed down fine enough and/or the proper pressure set. Plus, I have little or no hand-eye coordination for that sort of work. I think that was a fairly late-war scheme, '44 or so...I have not researched that specifically, but I get the impression that the (Dornier) -17s took heavy losses beginning with the BofB and their numbers continued to decline steeply on the Eastern Front...(so) I'm not sure how many Dorniers were left at that point.

But nevertheless, I am sure you will crack the code and it will be an impressive finish...Happy building!"
