I found this from Outerzone. Originally 13" wingspan, blown up to 1/16th scale to match the Precious Metal. Any tips, tricks, advice before starting on this endovor? I have a Diels Bearcat i thought about converting, but 100% sctrach would be cool too. Especially after seeing the canopy forming - i think i want to give it a shot. |

Decals from ' DrawDecal.com '. They custom printed them, very different decal material. Water for 5 seconds and they slide off in 30. No setting solution required and they just sink right into every detail. Very impressed with them. |

Experiment with Liquid Chrome paint pen. I’m pretty impressed with it, works great if you need some chrome details like landing gear, antenna, or in my case – polished aluminum components. Beats the heck out of trying to use HVAC tape around nightmare compound corners… it kind of feels like cheating though. Same for 3D printed parts - I have much respect for those whom build details from the balsa – hats off to you for sure. But... if you have the means : ) |

3rd times a charm. At least one of the failed attempts left me with a good spinner for a P40.... now I have to build a P40. 3D printing ( like all technology ) is nice - when it works... |
