Lithuanian LVG C.VI questions....

Hi all,

We are strongly considering finishing the magnificent new Wingnut 1/32 LVG C.VI as a Lithuanian example (varnished wood fuselage, 5-color lozenge wings) which appeared on an old Blue Rider 1/72 scale decal sheet. I have two questions, though:

- Would anyone happen to have a close up picture or illustration of the early "diamond" Lithuanian insignia with the rider in the center of the red area? Scanning and enlarging the 1/72 scale insignias is an option, but just trying to get an idea if doing them in 1/32 would be feasible or too complicated.

- Were these LVG C.VI's armed, and if so, with what? I assume since they were delivered from Germany, proabably the standard MG14, but you never know...the only actual photo I could locate online seems to show no gun mounted on the ring, not sure if the forward gun is mounted either...

Any help is MUCH appreciated,

Best Regards,

Ben Schmidt
