If it is just the markings you're after, then I would suggest a vector drawing program like Adobe Illustrator (or Corel DRAW! - but Illustrator is better). If you want to make them look realistic (shading, highlights , reflections, etc) then you'd need a bitmap editing program - something like Adobe Photoshop or JASC/Corel Paint Shop Pro.

That would be great. Peter Randall recently gave me a copy of the 1998 revision of the honour roll. Any corrections since then are most welcome.


PS. Are you aware of this site:
http://www.wwiiaircraftperformance.o...t-reports.html
It contains many combat reports of the 355th FG and 2nd SF, which may be of interest (if you don't have them already).
Mike Williams probably has more than those on the site.
