Yes from RCAF 407 Sqn in the mostly white scheme. You need to scroll down to 407 Sqn. I will be doing "P" with just the very top being camouflaged. http://www.rafweb.org/Squadrons/Sqn%20Markings/SqnMark400-407.htm#400

Nice looking Wellington. The colours really look good on the model. Also the visible hint of the "wicker basket" construction does invite discussions of the unique structure.

The Wellington turned out great. I like seeing the landing gear, props and guns. Not that easy to model in 1/144.

Thank you Fraser. I prefer the Coastal Command scheme.
Thank you Dave. Just following your lead on small gems. I have been adding undercarriages and propellers to all my 1/144 collection models.
