Post by cylon75 » Wed Jun 02, 2010 12:46 pm

I was working on this a couple weeks ago and i was holding off posting final pictures because i have a decal to fix but i decided to take my beauty shots of it now and post it, and than i can add a few later when i get the decal fixed. I also made a hanger bay scene for it to go in ,in my collection.

I see only one problem, and that is a major flaw on the builders end. It is toooooooooooooo small. I can't fit inside. This darn thing is so hot it looks like it is ready to fly. Great job. Outstanding. Fantastic. Awesome. Off the hook, and well you get the point.

Small update: i found another way to do the Red "danger" ribbons . I used real plastic danger ribbon and cut strips and made them out of that, looks much better and a lot more realistic.

Only one problem they are supposed to be yellow. Doesn't take away from the fact they look great.

This turned out really cool. The diorama set you have really sets it off.

The subtle weathering on it and the grease stains around the guns really make it realistic. Pristine, yet real.

Hummmmm...that is odd, because what I own the engine intake covers, and what I saw on the auctions they were yellow also.

Maybe yellow is from the mini - not the series. Or maybe yellow was used on the Pegasus??? (guesses) Or maybe the colors are different for a Viper that is in service and one that is grounded??? (another guess)
