Holy Hannah-freakin' Montana but this is cool.  Way above my own limited level of comprehension (naturally) but I do know "cool" when I see it.

Amazing!   :bow:   :bow:   :bow:

Got some paint on (sorry for the $hi**y pics, could not get the lighting right  ).





I think the AC would look better with black wings and elevons, a little more blue than I wanted, but the wings might get blue leading edges al-la my F-14/F-16 Mistel project from the ARC WhIf GB.

Damn, that is sweet, Mac.Though I always thought it was a pretty wicked idea, especially in the Ace Combat series, when they designed an F-14's scheme to blend perfectly not just with wings forward, but swept as well.

I Agree, but that was only the Ferris camo scheme (or the Pumpkin scheme from 6) and I wasn't quite sure where I was going with this. Like I said, I'm thinking black wings. There's no real reason for the camo to have rhyme or reason and actually disguise the fighter as in the book Maya Kudou  designed this custom scheme because she liked it. Camo wasn's a real concern as;

1). Most PLAAF fighters are missile-reliant and do not carry internal cannons.
2). Maya Kudou has a subconscious death wish.
3). Maya Kudou's skill/reflexes in the WVR areana.

Actually, if you look in the older games at the F-14's, All their schemes blended when they were swept and forward - the Zipang '14 scheme also does the same effect, the image blends when she's swept as well.
