 Managed to get the little sucker glossed this morning, decals soon. Oh yeah, and I moved the canards from the front to the rear, as the speed wouldn't effect the front airflow (dang jet isn't fast enough), but changing the tail end surfaces would increase a pop up and turn move:

Whew boy. 2 hours into it, and how many more? 


BlackOps

I recognize that camo  :mellow: Lookin' good! (don't envy you puttin' the decals on, I remember last time)

Wow.   Didn't realize you were going in this direction.  I'm even more impressed now.

 I do take breaks now and again, and paint. Oh yeah, and drink a bit.


cthulhu77

looks like it is going to be an allnighter to get these bastards on.


Brian da Basher

Holy smokes, Greg! Just when you knock our socks off, you go ahead and take it to the next level! Incredible work!

Looking good.  Much better for you than sleeping anyway.

We don't just embrace insanity here.  We feel it up, french kiss it and then buy it a drink.

John Howling Mouse

Yah, sleep is (apparently  >:( ) overrated lately.

And, besides, you know the old saying "Life is brief, Whiffing is forever"    :lol:

This is looking very dynamic.   :wub:

I'm seriously impressed - kit modifications and digital camouflage in a one week build :o
It looks great so far :wub: I'm looking forward to seeing this finished.

I liked the canards up front, but your argument makes sense ! Keep 'em coming !

CANADA KICKS arse !!!!

Long Live the Commonwealth !!!
Vive les Canadiens !
Where's my beer ?

Thanks!  I agree, visually, the canards in the front looked good, but they made little sense.  Well, I stayed up all night putting on decal after decal ( a whole sheet)...here it is so far:




and, while shaving today, I found that the razor cover would make a great pavtac!




John Howling Mouse

I mean this in the best possible way: you are the "Kramer" of modeling, Greg!
