You are embarrassing the rest of us. Either paint ours to look as good as yours or keep yours at home so we don't look so bad.

Great job and she's looks every bit as good in the air.

Way to go Frank

Note: I posted a few more pics under " Check out the art work "

I'd be aweful careful of that guy in the background with the red hat on...he looks like he would be nothing but trouble!!! Look at him barking orders at his pit b*tch.....not even putting his own plane together!!!!!!

Hey Dave - I gotta confess, he was putting my second plane together - but he's the one that wanted to fly it. Did you recognize the Craven. I finally got it out to fly. Hope you can get up this way sometime and fly with us. Great bunch here and some awesome planes. See ya soon

Thanks for the comp...........................

How long did it take you to paint the tail.......the detail is amazing......do you paint for a living, or is it just a hobby of yours?

About 30 hours for the tail section. Second time I have painted with an airbrush.
I am a FAA repairman work mainly on Corprate jet aircraft (Wheels and Brakes)

Can you paint Lew a better looking face???
