Criticism invited - homemade 1/72 Su-25 decal patterns

Modeling Subjects Aircraft

Continuing my experiments with decal patterns, here is a small 1/72 sheet depicting Frogfoot-A White 6019 of the Czech Air Force, late 1980s? vintage. Alert - this aircraft had a “cheesecake” type nose art - unusual for a Warpac aircraft. If you’re underage or offended by such things, don’t look.

What do you think - is this getting closer to useability? Comments welcome…it lost a good bit of quality when reduced…the gray around the roundels was intentional, to help in getting them out of a white sheet…

Squadron badge was on the port intake, the pinup girl on the starboard nose.

let me think. my main focus has been pearl harbor. maybe a sheet with markings for multiple p-40’s, pby’s, p-36’s, sbd’s, and f4f’s. these might include the early insig. 1/48 and 1/72 scale.

It looks alright to me… I also like the “Command Decision” nose art. I’d like to do a B-29 with those markings… or maybe a diorama of the fuselage at the USAF museum…

Chris,
The Su-25 ones look very good. Now, can you get Dhahran Annie to look a little more like this pic and I would love it in 1/72 (of course, in that scale, there may not be much difference).

I would love to see some national markings for small airforces (my passion). Estonia just got some Canadair CF-5 A & B and these would be sharp. A Jamaican Islander and numerous others. Any other small airforce requests?
