Kyp Durron Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Who's going to be doing a custom paint job?? I'm seriously considering painting the yellow markings either flat black, or flat white. I won't know if I'll do anything at all with it until I finally get it in hand. For all I know, I may just end up being happy with it as it is. -Kyp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sumdumgai Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Nice, but the intakes should be black, not red. The red makes it look funky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sqidd Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Nice, but the intakes should be black, not red. The red makes it look funky. I agree, it's not "balanced" correctly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mog Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 If he was going for a Roy scheme, I'd personally prefer if he used white instead of grey. Plus I think the intakes would look better in grey or black with the original yellow trim. Looks okay though. P.S.--Wicked Ace is right: I am working on a custom right now. I'm about halfway done with the painting. But I still need to paint the nose/cockpit/cowl sections and the intake areas. .....And re-attach all the major areas back together again (Legs, arms, and gunpods are all separately reassembled. Backpack is partially reassembled.) ....And pray that there is no major paint-chipping. .....And hope that someone can print up some stickers I've designed.

Mog Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 ^^Probably still gonna be working on it............I know, I know. (I'm guessing final assembly, panel lining, and stickering up around the time of the con). I'll be out on vacation for about a week between now and the MW con too. Don't worry; I'll post pics for sure once the bird is all dolled up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyp Durron Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 about the wings...no locking mechanism? will it be loosened easily? Some have reported them being a bit floppy and others have said they stay upright reasonably well. I think it's sort of pot luck in that reguard. Nothing that some clear fingernail polish won't fix if need be. -Kyp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No offense to Kevin, I know this isn't his fault, but I'm never getting anything shipped by boat ever again. It's just not worth it in my opinion.

ruskiiVFaussie Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 (edited) Although it sux, i'll keep ordering with Kev, this really is a one off problem, it's just that they decided to annoy us this time.
