the wing streaks look a bit overdone.

Thanks.
Actually went back and changed the green.
SEAC used dark foliage green, not dark green.

Also looked at pics, wing stripes were wider on spit, so changed them also.

Re-uploaded new pics in place of originals.

They look really nice Kev. Sure wish the yellow leading edge was something they'd let you lose on em though.

Ever consider doing one of the SEAC Spit XIVs?

Spit XIV, I'll look into it.
You got a profile, only one I can find is bubble canopy

Oops further investigation seems to lean towards dark earth/dark green uppers, med sea grey lowers.

Dark earth/dark foliage green, azure lowers used on RAAF aircraft.

Will be changing them back.

Edit - Changed them back to dk green/dk earth.
Can't get rid of yellow leading edge on spit (mapped upper wing and mirrored), so changed to white which is more in keeping with SEAC.

Got rid of hurri leading edge stripe as it is mapped on lower wing, so just changed it to grey.

Reuploaded pics to original post.
