As the titles says, has anybody done any repaints of Korean War Mustangs for the Warbirdsim little friends models? Either American, Korean or South African?

I have an old A2A WOPII one I can convert fairly readily - 44-73627 of the 39th FBS, but I'm not sure the Warbirdsim model will fit a D-25 correctly. Will look at it this week sometime.

There's only one model that sort of fits, FF-704 (44-73704) in the Restored Part 2 pack. It has rockets and tanks but also has a two-seat cockpit so would seem a bit unrealistic for an operational Korean War D-25. Also many had a DF loop antenna fitted that isn't on any model. Not sure this is really worth pursuing for publication especially since I'm finding it hard to locate any decent photos to work from. I need clear and large. Anybody got any?
