Yes, I will have to try to find my pictures, I have a 1/72 C-130, an OLD Micro Scale decal sheet with the markings, and a resin ski conversion 
All I need is time and my photos

How about a LC-130 of VXE-6? Very nice looking aircraft and unusual with the skis. If I can ever find them I have a bunch of pictures of one.

Thank you, thank you, got them. I guess I can dig a couple of WW.I kits out of storage now!

Very nice! I like techniques such as this because of the "randomness" of the chipping, sometimes when applying the chips by brush or a silver pencil you can sort of fall into a pattern that is not so random. Hope that made some sense?

I've applied the German crosses and then the Belgian roundels over it. The Belgian cockades comes from an old Americal Gryphon decal sheet.
But for my second fokker (to be build yet), I will use masks to make my own roundels...
Ah, looks very good!

I just realized that you printed your own Lozenge, is that something that avaliable for anyone to print out? I would be interested in trying it out.

Wow, there were alot of bubbles on the botton I hope when you sand the superglue down, it does not make more bubbles appear.

Looking good How do you keep you work mat so clean? or is that oine just for photos? 
I can never keep mine clean 
Won't be long now and we can see how the chipping comes out
If it is the same as your Fokker, it will be awesome!

Excellent! I like the effect of the German cross under the roundels, did the decals come like that, or did you have to do it in layers, apply a cross decal and then the roundel over it? It does look very convincing though, top work on all that lozenge decaling!
