Thougth I think the most proplematic part in planes has always been the scaling...it comes expecially tricky when using MS paint that really is crappy program for that.
In order to get the rigth scaling I use normally MS Picture Manager on jpg files just after the cropping step. The default option is just a scaling percentage but it is also possible to define the image length giving the number of pixels. It works perfectly.
Then I open the file with MS Paint and I proceed saving it as png.

Paint.NET offers both percentage and defined length scaling.

I was just about too when I went back through the thread and found another updated on one of Klaglsf's sheets. I'll check the two and see if mine is worth putting up, if not best stick with Klag's

I'd like to see it Bill. At this scale what looks right is sometimes better than detail alone. Anyway we need to sort out which Wasp to use!

I'll post on the other sheet. I found the the one on Klags sheet first on a drawing, but couldn't find the relevant sheet then. I made some changes myself while getting it airborne, and then I found the actual sheet. There isn't much diference - both are a vast improvement over the earlier version, but of course, I prefer mine :)

the new wasp looks good to me..... but could you please post one without decals (or without colour at all ;) ) for modification for other navies (in my case, the dutch of course)

The only thing regarding the Wasp is the blue panel lines for the windows. As a purist I feel the windows should be outlined black as is the standard. Other than that it looks nifty!
