GIMPs free ya know ive always wanted to do some low viz TPS birds for the fleet myself. but for me they are somewhere around 989 on a list of 1500 things to do. hoping you dont get burnt out on the SLUF after the full color squadrons, as lo viz would be nice. but it can get tiring going down the rabbit hole researching and creating so i understand if it doesnt happen 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The reason I made greys first...(mostly) 2 hours ago, daddyairplanes said: but for me they are somewhere around 989 on a list of 1500 things to do. 1500? well, that is a short list then... Meanwhile... 'Peace' after Vietnam. Most of the units were deployed in Vietnam, and are covered there - but still, a few more colorful years and then slowly losing saturation.
