Default Upscale

EV,

Yep.
When you were writing your post I was looking at the nose cone on Moldin' Oldies.
I need to finish the painting the A-7 and add some detail.

Default A little paint....

I did a little painting today, I still have more to do, But I'm undecided on a few minor details for decals. I like the shark mouth look but I don't have a decal for it. Also, I need ordnance(fuel tanks,bombs, missles) I want to use some from a plastic kit, will it take the punishment or stress of a launch.

Ideas? Comments?

Default Ask and ye shall receive...

STRMan,

Here ya go!
I was hoping to get a shot of the launch lug down the box hole.
I think got it!
Also I had to repaint the stabulators(horizontal tail).
They should be all white, top and bottom.

Default WIP...done!

I got a little more done this week in the detail department. Not much, just a little.
Actually, I think I'm done with the detail and paint. Tomorrow I will apply some decals and call it completed!
This is a proof of concept design to see if it flies.
Well she flies just fine so on to my next design!

Default She flies better!

I added a little more weight since the last flights. She flies great on a C6-3 and a C6-5.
Now only if I could find a few C6-7's.
With a C6-5 there is just enought time for the rocket to arc over to a fighter prone dive before the chute pops out.
Now, I can't wait to try a C6-7. Just Awsome.
