I don't see any pics. Guess I'm late to this party?

Photobucket strikes again.

I think it was just a natural fiberglass look. But it's been so long that I couldn't swear to it.

It really depends on which version you want. The FJ-1 and FJ-3 (or lack thereof) have been discussed above. You've got a fair selection for the FJ-4/-4B series as well. The old Matchbox kit, the Grand Phoenix and Hobbyboss in 1/48 and I think the Emhar kit is one of your few (only?) mainstream FJ-4 choices in 1/72.

Very nice, Chris!

I don't think they're tinted. While not exhaustive, take a look here:

Also do a Google Image search for OV-1D and see what you can see. Try to pick active duty (or NG, etc), vice restorations.

Mike said the site doesn't work well with Android devices (specifically the pulldown menus), so if that's what you're using, you my have issues…
His products are top notch. I've got his early model Lynx conversion with decals and it's VERY well done. Those Lancaster nacelles are next on my list.

I think in1/48 Revell and Academy did A models. Not sure about other scales or manufacturers...

If you need to download your PB pics, this is well worth using:

Very quick and easy. The only issue that I see that may be a problem is the limitation in the number of photos you can download at one time (100). This was not a problem for me, I think I had one or two albums with over 100 photos.

I ordered an early Lynx help conversion a few months ago. BB is a one man operation, so Mike may take some time to get back to you.

I wouldn't think so, but I could be wrong.
This may be worth a look:

I keep meaning to order some, I just haven't been able to get to it. When I think about it, I don't have the spare cash, when I've got the spare cash I don't think about it.

I downloaded my album yesterday and closed my account.I hope others follow suit, it's the only way they'll notice.
I'm working on it, I've got too many albums to get done all at one sitting.

Thanks for the info Gertjan.
-
The Academy/Hobbycraft kit seems to be adapted from the Airfix F2H-2, many of the parts are similar. I used to have both kits in the stash and it was easy to see the family resemblance.
-
It may be worth looking at the instructions to compare available parts for the two kits.

How does this kit compare to the old Fujimi kit? Is this an ESCI mold?
-
I'm (slowly) making the switch to postimage.org. So far it's quick and easy. I'm downloading my pics to my hard drive then I'll upload them to Postimage.

I have F4Dable Models' F-18D sheet for Malaysian aircraft and it's a beauty, looks to be very well done. I'd like to get some Spanish or Finnish markings for my single seater.

Looks like the Photobucket policy change monster is at work on Ray's photos.
-
I think, as it's a Whiffer, I'd find photos of Mosquitoes that fit the role you want to depict and use them as a guide. If you're wanting to do a anti-shipping aircraft, I'd look at Beaufighters for inspiration.
-
FS 30279 looks more "right" to me. I don't know if it is or not, but to me that's how lit looks.
-
I used the MM Blue Gray and Light Gull Gray on my Tamiya 1/48 F4U-2 and I'm happy with how it came out.

I've only ever seen photos, but 20400 doesn't look quite right to me.
-
Looks great! Probably as good, or better than the detail on Monogram's 1/48 kit!
-
I'd suggest that if you've got period photos showing the four guns, then go with that. I can't help with the LEs unfortunately.
