Title: Putting on the markings-The Fokker D7

The all black personal aircraft of Howard Hughes as used in the film 'Hells Angels'
In the end I went for hand painted iron crosses and pin striping as the masking gave me so much hassle,the top wing markings are still to have the black added.
The big nasty black baron was a feature of the film !
