Question for the UK members. Or anyone that may know.

[OleBoy]

I'm wondering if anyone can identify something for me.
....If you look on the fuselage forward of the canopy (between "Grim Reaper" and the "kiss" stickers) there are 5 smaller stickers. Can anyone tell me what they are..or where I can find pictures of them?

Thanks

If you mean the six small winged stickers, dare I suggest "bird kills"?

Now that you mention it....I bet your right! :d

I'm guessing the same KD. Thanks Bazzar.
...Now if I can just find them somewhere. No luck as of yet.

Or an idiot. It has been a test of patience.
....Sorry to say this, but if I can not do a truly authentic rendition, I will not be releasing this paint.

Could you send a message to the photographer?

[kilo delta]

I have sent several emails to photographers throughout this re-creation. No responses as of yet.
......Kilo Delta has helped out a bit here. From his detective work I traced the website of the owner G-REAP. Problem is the website is just a picture with small bits of information, and a phone number. Of which to say I am not calling as I am in the U.S.A. Unless I (or someone) can trace an email I guess I will be the only one that can enjoy the repaint,

KD, Thanks. I responded to your PM.

Update: I found way to get in contact. Email sent. Now it's time for the waiting game.

WOOHOO....Problem solved!!

I found a new stash of pictures hidden deep within links. The bird strike stickers have been obtained. Amongst a few more other legible bits that are not visible on most pictures.

Now the paint is coming together:wiggle:


Now for the problem of reaching the owner.

Oops. Almost forgot. Thanks a lot for the help everyone :ernae:

WOOHOO!!! Contact with Mr. Howes was made minutes ago. He seems a nice gentlemen and more than willing to assist me in my ventures with all the resources I need. I will soon be finalizing G-REAP. Then I will re-create G-JAWZ, and finally G-HISS. And maybe one more of his Pitts aircraft that I wasn't aware of. :ernae:
