Looks great. Now I suppose I'm going to have to go against nature and finish one of my own.

(mother was a hamster???? ---- does she wear combat boots too? ---- Now that's a vision that boggles the mind)

LOL

Yellow paint? Did I say yellow paint? Oh, I did say yellow paint, didn't I? My mistake...

BTW, props on the fact that were able to finally finish this beast, especially after all the woes you had with it. Thumbs Up [tup]

Even though it still looks like a blind-build entry...

How long should we keep this up, you think?

Maybe in your warped, 3rd dimensional world it's INexcusable, but not in mine dagnabbit.

Yellow paint? What in the world would I need yellow paint for? Smile [:)]

Eagle, I'd like to extend to you my cordial invitation to the theoretical place of eternal punishment. Your mother was a hampster and you father smellt of eldeberries. (or however you spell that word...)

And the word is INexcusable...

Yes, I did change my name slightly.


BTW, if you need some yellow paint you can always borrow some of mine. Either that or Dan might have some BROMA left over... Wink [;)]

That hurts Blackwolf !!! It's one thing to slam me in private, but to do it on a public forum is unexcusable.

I clear my nose in your general direction. Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time.

Did you change your ID?

Hey Pix

What I did on the Nav lights is, since they are seperate clear pieces, I drilled a hole from the back side into the lens and then put red paint in one and green in the other. from the outside of the lens it looks like a light bulb inside.

Looks great, eagle ! The choice of markings with the white tail & cowl are a nice touch. Did you use clear green & red on the nav. lights? I like it. Glad to see you feeling the accomplishment of finishing a kit ! Hope we don't have to wait two years for another. Good job.

I have the Academy SU-27 which I think is the original issue of the Hobbycraft, what's wrong with it? It looks pretty good in the box.
