    Default Cool color scheme!

    Not sure if its camo or dazzle . . . but it landed on my house.

    Beautiful. I love the tape stripes on the wing ribbing.

    Me 163 scheme?
    I laugh in the face of danger - then I hide until it goes away!

    Hm, rounded delta wing, blended wing-body. Is that the prototype for the Vulcan V-bomber?

    My first thought Tim but also a good one Sam. I think Dave makes a Vulcan in 1/200. UMMMM

    Yes Dave has a Vulcan in 1/200 for $18.00 so could be an nice paint job.

    It could be used as a design for an alien spacecraft.

    Wowzers! Way cool, now I have to paint one-I think I still have one in resin. Pilot needs to be Mothra in German, and it's a night fighter!

    Very nice design, you did well getting it to stay still while you painted the dazzle camouflage.

    Indeed! Well done! I have a plastic 1/200" kit somewhere in the archives . . . But I'm thinking Concord

    This didn't require any warping or distortion. Fit almost perfectly.

    Perhaps instead of a 'Tiger Meet' paint scheme as NATO used to have (do they still run that competition?), there could be a 'Moth Meet' - there are so many cool moth coloring variations out there that could be used...

    Very inventive work here, Mike!

    All the best,
    Matt

    I guess Clipper will be the first to have a plane in that pattern
