Ah watching this one! I have the same double-build plan further down the line, although Hungarian ones from Trumpeter.

Ok, small update, photos to follow tomorrow. Clear coat added and decalling started. I've come up against 2 issues with the Caracal decals. 1, there is only 4 national insignia squares for a decal sheet with 3 options. According to Caracal none of the 3 have insignia on the upper wings. Granted there is a photo on the website showing this but I've a feeling it's a plane not finished painting as I've seen plenty of photos of the two I'm building (111 & 15) with all 6 insignia. Also, the camouflage guide for the UB does not match any photos I can find of 15.

That's because the Polish Air Force insignias were not applied on the upper surfaces of the wings before 2013, Roy. So, I suppose the decal sheet was developed before this year, and all the photos you've found are newer. BTW, in the late 1990ties there was a decision to "turn" the Polish "checkerboard" by 90 degrees... You can compare these on the photos of Polish MiG-21's and MiG-29's...

Ah OK thanks Robert, the Caracal decals are from 2010 I think. I put all 6 from the Italeri sheet on the UB and the 4 Caracal ones on the single seater, upper wings and tail. Grrrr....

I think I haven't seen it earlier. Built same single seater, but from Trumpy. Had the same problem with the Caracal grey.
Your couple is looking grand mate 👍 (not only because of the roundels 😛 )
