Glenn's Current Modeling Projects

Thanks to YOU, Glenn: I have been very much helped by the propellers Photoshop removal of yours and the simple unicolor background...

As you can see, she's a bit rough at present.....but at least, the shape is there. You can see how easy it would have been to down scale the Aero C-3  and do the Aero 45.

Great! These Aero planes with faired-in cockpit are very beautiful in Real World, thanks for having scratchbuilt that as little object!

[Glenn]

OK, the this side it's as bad as the other side!

sorry, I disagree: it's as "beautiful" as the other side

[TheChronicOne]

Looks cool!  Very promising.... go for the gusto!

This began as a F-22 Raptor and when I turned it upside down I saw how I could build a new version of Zylbat. It's scale will be around 1/144 and will be finished some time next year.

Uh? I didn't know the Zylbat, but thanks to Google, I have seen it at http://www.papermodelers.com/forum/alternate-dimensions/22255-dan-dare-cryptosian-spaceship-9.html
All right, good!

[Glenn]

As you can see the underneath  (actually the top of the F-22) it was easy to remove the wings and the general shape was already there.

I understand... and I clap my hands...

I am glad I am not the only one to not know what that is.
Thanks for the link Tophe.

Matthew.....you've never heard of Dan Dare? You have to get out of that envelope and into my world!



I'm back with The Kite from Disc World but now, I'm working on the head......The other side was harder, as everything is in reverse and worse than that, I had to finish off the paint in enamel, as the original was in acrylic.
Anyhow, half hour later, and five or six different colors mixed to make the ochre it finally worked out!

Damn that's cool.. reminds me of the Romulan D'deridex class ships from Star Trek.

Kite's head is superb

Part of the NASA high altitude test program, this SR-71 clears Edwards for more rarified air.

Removed the landing gear with Photoshop and added the after burn.
