The colour looks good but I think the star should be a little bit bigger and the borders slightly thicker, the points of the star should be touching the border. This website has some good diagrams of USAAF insignia showing what I mean.

Ah yes, I can tweak that.   It will only touch the inner edge of the border.   Got it, thank you.  Good catch.

Looks great - that olive drab looks right on the spot, and the dark blue outline really adds a lot.  I wish Hitech would give us the option to select the old birdcage canopy as an option instead of the Malcolm hood, when appropriate.

Thanks everyone.  I'm still tweaking the code letters, serial number,  and some other details. 

I agree with you Oboe that a birdcage option would be nice, by I definitely prefer the Malcolm Hood if I have to fly the B.

Do I need to thicken the border some more?

Yes, it looks that way. Try going out 1 more pixel.
