Whiffs found surfing

interesting camo scheme.

White scrim netting.

Only in real life.   

I did think it looked like material stretched over the vehicle but something similar could be done with paint.  Hmmmmmm...

I would think a light dabbing with a sponge would be the most effective (and easiest) way to get that done.
If you were wanting a slight 3-D effect, maybe using thick paint or adding something like gesso could work?

Well..... I'll be damned!

I was thinking of spattering on masking fluid by flicking it from a paintbrush.
Or maybe think backwards.  Paint the whole thing white, spatter on some dark green and then paint the solid areas.

True, either would work.
And white is easier to cover with green, than v/v.

Is it just me the X-59 is looking like a HP 115 on steroids?

While contemplating on the junkers G.38 and doing a whiffy with the fuselage (upside down) i found this:

Junkers G38 concept (2) by Buddy Holly, on Flickr

Now I know Junkers did the "Ente" with Reissner and the Focke Wulf F.19 Ente, but i didn't know the basic design was stretched into this behemoth.

Nice little text about the Swedish nuclear bomber project, and an even nicer rendition of it. 💕

Layouts look similar.
I suspected that the long nose of the X-59 would be for studying something supersonic. Apparently it is for low-noise supersonic flight.

Very interesting, and a great looking aeroplane (even if the text was buried under ZILLIONS of adverts!  )

But I can't help thinking that whoever wrote it was a tad low on real aviation knowledge...

....work on the Saab 36 contributed in part to the development of the Saab 37, a strike fighter that was one of the first successful jets that incorporated the delta wing design.

Erm, not quite. There were a LOT of successful deltas before the Viggen, SAAB even made one of them themselves, the Draken!

I kinda focused on the rendition..

TSR meets SR71, what a great design

[chrisonord]

That looks really good, I wonder if Marivox could be persuaded to do a kit of it

That looks really good, I wonder if Marivox could be persuaded to do a kit of it

But could we afford one?

It sure does look good though. Maybe someone should send the link to Anigrand as well.......

Forgot about Anigrand, it would be right up there street too. I have a stalled Marivox saab 105 in the bits box, it wasn't that dear when I bought it, but things have gone pear shaped since.
