Thanks Mike - it's a great kit.

Hey, New...the easiest way to get the info is to look at the color scheme profiles on Wingnut Wings website.  Go to whichever version of the Snipe you bought, click on the boxart and look for the tab that says "Color Schemes" - that should do it.

      "There were some bi-planes in WW2."

 

During the battle to defend Malta, three Gloster Gladiators put up an epic struggle against the axis, for months before the Brits were able to get through with new Hurricanes.  The planes were called Faith, Hope, and Charity.  Famous exploits- google it.  There was a great book about it too.  And, the Gladiator is a fairly neat looking airplane Smile

 

Add to that the Fairey Swordfish, the Curtiss Seagull, The Supermarine Walrus, and a couple of Japanese designs.

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.
