I finally got some paint on it and I have to say I'm pretty happy with it. They're a couple spots that need touchup, but overall it's a step in the right direction.

Very nice work there! That looks glorious.

That is looking great indeed, love that scheme and the colors!

Perfect paint scheme - it really looks like it came from a computer simulation back in the day.

I do like that paint work

Wow! And where did those panel lines come from? Did I miss something? They really add to the authentic look!

Thanks for all the kind words guys! I got the dielectric panels and the radome painted today, now I just need to finish painting the landing gear/weapons bays and exhaust.

Yeah, I didn't see the two week extension for the GB so I was scribing panel lines in lieu of posting updates. Glad you like them. I was trying to make them believable for a stealth aircraft.

Love it!

Another lover here! What a stunner. I'm sorry I'd missed it until now - it looks so, so much better than the OOB design.

Wowzers what a neat looking machine ! Love the shape, all the lines....looks big and mean ! Great colour scheme as well.

Holy crap, I just realized you scribed all them lines like that! Wow, dude, masterful! I wish I could do that... I'll leave it in your capable hands and others with similar skills, though.

KiwiZac · May 04, 2017, 09:37:33 PM

I've just gone through the whole thread...I had no idea of the amount of work you've put into this! I want one!

Thanks guys!

It's nice that people here can appreciate the work that goes into our projects, I think most people don't understand the work involved, but you guys do! I show one of my creations to my wife or family and they just kind of shrug and go "That's nice". I don't mean that in a bad way, they're just not afflicted with my crazy compulsion to see these things come to life.
