Something a bit different...

Botswana Air Force squadron Z12 operates a substantial number of BN-2s out of Francistown (FBFT). I've painted only one so far, and, due to lack of images, will paint the rest in the same camo scheme.

OA1: BN-2A (active)
OA2: BN-2A (w/o)
OA3: BN-2A (sold)
OA4: BN-2A (w/o)

OA5: BN-2A (active)
OA6: BN-2A (active)
OA7: BN-2B (active)
OA8: BN-2B (active)
OA9: BN-2B (active)
OA10: BN-2B (active)
OA11: BN-2B (active)
OA12: BN-2B (active)

Well, after looking at the Botswana C-130Bs colours, I may lighten the brown up on the BN-2s. I found one image of the Islanders and now, seeing the C-130s, it appears too dark. Opinions welcome.

Sunlight can play havoc with interpretation of colours but I would agree, the "brown" on the C-130 looks more like sand, something along the lines of FS33531, rather than the more Tan colour on the Islander

Okay, that wasn't a difficult fix. Here's the new version...unfortunately, the previous image and link can't be removed (by me, anyway) so just ignore them. :)
