Default Dragonship 7 RC RG

This is something I've pondered, but sort of fell together quickly once I decided to start drawing, upsized the wings of course, tried to keep their general shape/feel, then hand cut the red and black details, and made a rivet template out of a 12" long piece of milk jug with holes in it every 1/4" made with a leather punch, simply aligned the strip with my clear triangle, and made little circles in each hole with my fine line sharpie, actually didn't take too long, maybe 20-30 minutes for several hundred rivets on the fuse and wing. For the fuse I just wrapped the piece of plastic around the body tube and used it the same way.

23.5" wingspan, 34" long, 2.6" diameter. 11 oz rtf.
