Keltos, that really wasn't the PT109. The 109 was painted forest creen with red anti fouling paint underneath. The boat is a PT 103 Class ELCO. The dazzle paintjob was tried but found to require too much maintenence time to keep up. So it didn't last long. Actually it should look more like this 1/20 scale R/C model paint job.



The paint is a little too light though on this model. If you see the movie PT109 with Cliff Robertson, they get the color right in there. I do like the dazzle paint myself, and was going to paint my Dumas 1/20 scale R/C model the same. Too bad they don't make it anymore. It was a great kit with a preformed fiberglass hull. If I ever get the chance to build another one, that is how I'm going to paint it up. In the dazzle camo, as it is just so cool lookin'.
