W.H.I.F. C-119C(T)

[NARSES2]

Looking really good 

[rickshaw]

Thats excellent.  Is it based in Tasmania, by chance?   

[TimJ]

Fantastic paint job.

[Weaver]

That looks really great - nice one!

[Stargazer]

Looking awesome. Can't wait to see this one finished!! Japanese markings, maybe?

[pyro-manic]

Looking grrrrrreat, Wombat! Will she be nicknamed Tigger or Hobbes?





OK, OK, I'm going....

Garfield! or maybe just plain Tony. If its a wildlife rescue ship, dedicate it to Steve Irwin- who tickled one too many creatures.

This C-119 is monstrously nice!

[Old Wombat]

Thanks for the great reception, folks!

No name (yet???) for this bird cat. I don't think Tigger or Hobbes are suitable (unless their authors/copy-right holders, publishers, etc., donate significantly to the Fund), Tony was a marketting tool, Garfield is a cat & Steve Irwin already has a ship named after him. However, I have toyed with the name "Siberia" (as in "Siberian Tiger"), thus there could be a sister plane called "Bengal".

I had set aside today to focus on getting most/all of the decals done.... So far (& it's 7:35 pm here) I've managed an hour.

Once I've finished here I'm going back to decaling & I hope to get most of it done tonight, &, if the work to date is anything to go by, I might be done about midnight (next Tuesday!).

And what about "Shere Khan"? (Or "Sheer can" if you really don't want to risk copyright infringement?  ).

[Cobra]

how about Calling it,"purr Fectly Cool"? for a Rescue Plane.  Keep up the Great Work Dan

[Sticky Fingers]

Or "Putty-Cat"?

[Old Wombat]

Nope, nothin's workin' fella's! I think she'll remain nameless.

1:00 am, Thursday, 19 Jan 2012:- decals done.

Now, all I have left is a coat of Pledge (Future), fix up some paint work, fix a window that fell into the plane, gloss coat, & finish painting & put on the landing gear.

Unfortunately I go back to work this (Thursday) afternoon, so progress may slow down.... Again!

Call her the Fairchild "Survivor"!!! ("The Eye of the Tiger"...).

[PR19_Kit]

Call her the Fairchild "Survivor"!!! ("The Eye of the Tiger"...).

Very subtle, and suitable too! 

That's Mrs. PR19's fave music track of all time.v
