Outstanding piece of perseverance Sir, and looking damn good for it!

I have absolutely NO idea where this colour scheme is going now...... :unsure:

Will soon be sporting my own designed/homeprinted decals...

I wanted to improve on my original idea for a spinner so:



Oh, and I didn't want to give away the decal masks before but here is how the white was strategically covered up for the homeprinted decals prior to hitting her with the yellow:





This is how she looked once the masked were all pulled: all dressed up and ready for decals!  Notice how the red walkways are a
slightly different shade of red, matte finish, and a little scuffed up.

Well here is a full walk-around of the Crown Racing 007 Mossie Racer, guys.  Hope the wait was worth it.



















She's a little too long in the nose---makes for hot and fast landings!





And a couple of shots with the Lang Austin SP-7D Caroma (you know, for scale reference  :thumbsup: )

Lovely Baz, you'd hardly believe it started as a Mossie!  And you say you can't do clean finishes....

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Thanks, guys!  For the Lang-Austin SP-7D Caroma, see this link.

I'm planning on uploading a few new pics of the Caroma, too.  I think they're better than the first pics I showed.
