Thanks AXU.

I use the ever famous $1 can of gray primer from Walmart. I'm convinced it was the 30 something degree air when I sprayed, because this has never happened before.

Two small mods to this project are being finished separate from the main build. They'll be up soon....

TOO MUCH BEAUTIFUL.

Sometime I feel myself tired of to build Whatifs but when I see projects like this I feel the need of to go forward.

Too much powerful!

Thank you very much. I'm trying to adjust to my new building speed, which is very slow. I had to remember that this is a hobby and not a job with deadlines, so I chip away here and there on several different subjects. Here's what's going on with the Dreamstar. It seems like a dream considering how long I've been working on it. New shape in the LEX to take the angles out, some "classified radar" arrays on the fuselage and added the flaps. I'm building the main landing gear to represnt something close to the F-22 as well. The F-5 mod ( WIP. The nose is a F-16 droptank

) gives a good comparison of the size of the Dreamstar...

I really like the cranked wings and the very sweet shaded paintwork, Eddie!

Your quote about this being a hobby and not a job with deadlines is pure wisdom!

Marry me, Mr. Miller!

Thank you very much Gents! I am honored and blushing at the same time. I don't think I've ever been proposed to on line. I'd be honored, but my wife of 16 years might, even maybe fight for my hand in marriage.

Real, honest to goodness paint work has begun. Photos soon...

Eddie M. · June 04, 2011, 06:56:17 PM

Okay, I'm very aprehensive about the road I'm about to take with this one. I'm not very convinced with the blue on the nose. I'll have to let it sink in a bit to see if it grows on me.
