Is blue the new gray ? Kinda inspired by the 'air superiority blue' scheme the prototype F-15 first flew in.

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Like that a lot. What colour did you use for the lighter blue ?

I don't often get excited by raptors, but you've done a beautiful job on this one.  The first thought I had was, "F/A-22N???

Great looking bird! :wub:

Yes, that's a beauty alright ! Love the underwing weapons. I built a CF-122 a few years back, with similar armament, but it was a true boring old grey !

CANADA KICKS arse !!!!

Well the sky is light blue, so that to me makes the most sense for camo on an airsuperiority fighter. But that's just me. I love the model, MartG. Great job.

Looks good in blue.  Nicely done.

Which kit is that and in what scale?

Niiiiiiiiice.  Always love to see the Maple Leaf roundels.  Great choice of hues, too.   :thumbsup:
