Heat formed styrene treated with a cocktail of future and food coloring for navigation lights. Masking tape for seat belts. Open to suggestions for a better seat belt constuction. Anyone? |

Pilot wanted a boom box for long flights got it. No a/c in these but it did have roll down windows. Will let everything cure for a day or two then a light oil wash to give it some depth. Nearing the finish line now. |

Cockpit looking aft. No masking tape ergo seatbelts not yet installed. |

Next underside grey will be a touch lighter. Also decided to hollow out the oil cooler intakes at leading edge. There were a lot more panels that could be drawn in but they can become a real PITA. |

Decals for RTD. Question. Where do you guys get your water slide decal sheets? Scaled off Rechalovs' kills today and now must duplicate a decal. Going to need clear sheets for this and white for the serial #. Really don't want to use "flea" bay. I tried DD's method of stars. Kudos DD, I gave up. I can probably get away with it on the underside. Too nany colors bumping into green. |
