Album: IAIS 495 - GP16

Makeshift "IAIS" lettering. IAIS shop crews patched over the "C" and "X" in "CSX", then added homemade "IAI" letters. The latter didn't hold up nearly as well as the CSX lettering. To recreate the look, I used an "S" and "X" from Microscale set #87-497, plus the "IAI" from out-of-production ORO Decals set #OUH-19. I then faded the "IAI" by sponging gray over it, and added glimpses of white, yellow, and red primer.
