I'm pretty sure the first hornet is a aggressor, but the second one is the "retro" paint scheme in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of naval air power.

Shes comin along.

Feedback?

its an orca!!

Its meant to be a panda lol. Oh well, i guess i can change it up to be an orca. Any suggestions for a name change? (Shes currently bamboo bandit)

Needs some major touchup work, but overall im happy with the design.

haha, it could still stay as a panda. Its just that "orca" was the first thing that popped into my mind when I saw it.

Bamboo Bandit ??? Hummmmmm I like it Mikey

P38: Looks like I missed your post, she's looking good! More photos please, you've made some progress since then haven't you?

Scorpy: Ack, sorry I thought orca too!!! Then again she does look sorta pudgy and panda-like once you point it out. I'm sure if you put the name 'Bamboo Bandit' on her side people will get the idea.

Scorpio.. looking good.. interested to see where its going...

Gamera.. sorry,, no progress in a while.. been trying to finish a Kingfisher for a friend.. but I'm putting in an effort this week , I'm trying to make it to Granite Con in Nashua.. I'm hoping to have both finished by Saturday...

Cool, looked at your Kingfisher thread a few times but I often don't comment till the model is finished. Hope it doesn't come off as lack of interest- just my thoughtlessness - sorry.
