I used MM paints throughout with the top being gloss acrylic and the lower be flat white. The squadron markings were from CAM as well as the data sheets and ejections seats. I used acrylic gloss and no preparation for applying decals was needed. Some were applied without using Floquil gloss and then I completely coated the model and finished applying the decals.

I used pastels throughout with a wash of interior black for the panel lines as well as picking out details. The bombs were from the Hasegawa Skyhawk which will be in adversary markings. 

I can't remember all the guys that supplied the some of the parts, Mark Sindiong sent me the decals for the asking, great guy. 

Thanks for the help fellows. Hope you all enjoy.
