And this is how the model ended up being painted. Having looked around, most sources show the airplane being painted in tan colors with a bright undercarriage. The windows are inspired by another painter who painted up this model for his Romanian army. I thought it looked pretty cool and since the Poles got most use of their bombers in the southern regions of Poland I saw it fitting to have a mountains reflect on the windows and a Tatra region themed base.

That is a great looking model and you have done it proud with that paint scheme.

Where did you get the decals from Anatoli, AIM?
Anatoli	16 Aug 2012 3:43 a.m. PST
@Truscott Trotter, Yep AIM had decals for this particular model. They were like 4USD or something like that. Totally worth it. And the sheet contained enough decals for two airplanes of this type.

Alexander, beautiful work. Yes, the decal set was provided by Armaments In Miniature (produced by The Goblin Factory). Cost is $4.00 USD USD and it provides enough decals to do two complete models.
