Thank you to all who have posted here. I have to admit that my favorite aspect of 1/48th scale aircraft is doing the special paint schemes.

Saw this bad boy at Reno Air Races back in 2019 and snapped few quick pics for my iPhone collection before leaving the show.

Another of the Centennial of Naval Aviation Heritage schemes. Two things that I really like about it: 1, it still works for an operational aircraft as a tactical camouflage scheme; 2, the markings are for the PBY that first sighted the Japanese fleet at Midway on June 3 1942.
and this one I just had to include, even if it’s not military. I took this on Hokkaido in winter 2003 during my return from the Yama Sakura exercise. My kids were very much into Pokémon at the time so I thought that they’d love the photo.

Lovely stuff guys. Just keep it coming.
To add to the JASDF theme, here’s one of my all time favorite F-15J 303rd TFS 10th Anniversary. Hasegawa did a 1/48 kit of this scheme and I was lucky enough to get hold of the decal sheet.
