Wow, I just got home from work, Ron told me he put this up here. Thanks for all the comments.
LGM graphix, As far as the turbines I thought I would see if it would work, and it worked good. I saw a sign shop that advertised photo signs, so in the parking lot of the sign shop with my cheapy walmart camera, I took a pic of the Jet Cat Titan that we're going to put in this plane. I told him how big I wanted it and said I wanted two. I did the tear away and alot of the other paint then put turbine pics in place. They ended up having a white boarder around them, so I airbrushed black around the edges and put the lightning bolts around it.

Hey Dan,
I thought that's what it probably was. A few years ago I did a couple pattern planes using that same technique, the sign shop used a machine called the "Gerber Edge". Did full color printing on vinyl. Pretty cool system really and was a quick way to get graphics onto a plane. Cool idea though, I've often thought of doing a jet with the "internals showing through" but didn't want to go through all the airbrushing to do it and didn't want to have a decal edge to have to hide in the clear, but after seeing the turbines on this ES, it definitely looks cool!

You "Jet Jocks" probably don't know this, but Dan Jacobsen is kind of big deal.

RE: Pics Of my Dan Jacobson custom painted EURO
LGM Graphix, Thanks for the kind words. I agree it looks good, it was just a thought and an easy way to do the idea. I thought I'd try it and if it looked dumb I would just sand it down. It came out better than I thought it would. Hopefully I'll have another one to do, to try some other ideas I have.

Dang, Dan! I knew you had like paint stuff at your shop but I didn't know you knew how to use it!!! Is this why you haven't been to any IMAC contests lately?
You'll be happy to know that I have started to develop a hard-on for jets - even considering selling my H9 260 to fund part of my first one! Then again, I also just bought my first real heli and need to learn how to tear up the skies with it, too...never thought I'd venture away from IMAC stuff - What is this world coming to???

Nick, You would love a jet, they can roll very fast. Earl (Dan) is proving to be a VERY fast student. He has only been painting for a couple of months. He just has natural ability, especially for an old guy.
