What a beauty !!!
BTW - where did the whole Yellow/Blue theme come from that you see on AirTractors etc? Is there a story behind it? or just a visibility thing?

Not sure deeknow?

They are very "retro" colours. Maybe it was the "hip" thing back when they first appeared?

Either way it really sets the seen.....

"Can you dig it man....?" LOL!!!!

It's easier to spot the wreckage, if they are yellow tongue.gif I'm glad you guys enjoy my paints, you can expect more NZ paints in future, now that I'm migrating to virtual NZ myself.
