Hello I'm trying to get information & pictures of the Zebra scheme that was used on PT Boats during ww2. I want to backdate & then paint the Italeri PT Boat in this scheme. can't find many pictures that are clear. any help would be grateful. My e-mail is [email protected]
Thanks

Hi Shaun, and Welcome to Model Shipwrights, mate!
The Zebra scheme, eh? Well.we just so happen to have a member here at MSW, who just so happens to make paint masks, and who just so happened to recently add a new Zebra scheme mask to his line-up for us shipwrights...his name is Kenny (Gator) Loup, and you can see his company site, along with the zebra scheme mask HERE!
Cheers!

Ahoy Shaun. I have the adaptor scheme masks for the 1/35 Elco boat.

PT boat masks.

They sell for $20.00 each.

Hello Gator
I sent you an e-mail to your wab site a couple of days ago before I knew you belonged to thjs group. Yes I would be very interested in your masks. I've been wanting to do this scheme since seeing a single picture in the war machine magazine in the 80's. I like 35th scale so I've had to wait for a descent pt boat as well.
I live in the united kingdom so how would you take payment.

Hey Shaun. I take PayPal. You can order through my web site.

Wow....you took on the 'Zebra' painted PT boat huh?........very impressed

Considering how intricate this scheme is, I don't suppose you have a hands-on review of the zebra mask do you? I'm just wondering how difficult it might be to work with.......hoping it's not like some of the "easy-to-apply" lozenge decals for WWI-era aircraft.....

....just curious.

Hey Tread.

I haven't had any orders for the masks yet, but they will be easy to use. As far as the review, I don't think you'll get an unbiased review if I reviewed my own product.
As far as tackling the zebra scheme, it was far easier to digitize than the SAAB Viggen splinter camo or the lozenge paint masks that I used to paint my laptop.
I have a working with paint masks feature here at MSW if you want to see how the regular camo works.
